University of North Georgia (国产自拍) women's basketball head coach Buffie Burson earned her 600th career victory in a 76-70 triumph against ninth-ranked Carson-Newman University on Nov. 19 in Dahlonega.
"I just want to say thank you to every player and coach who has been a part of these wins. They are the ones who deserve the credit," Burson said. "I have been extremely blessed to coach and be around some of the very best players and people. I am also grateful to our administration through all these years for giving me the opportunity of a lifetime to coach at 国产自拍."
