Cheryl Reeve

The four-time WNBA champion Minnesota Lynx are trying to reverse course following a tumultuous 0-3 start and a host of roster turnover to kick off the 2022 season. After parting ways with veterans Angel McCoughtry and Odyssey Sims earlier this week, Minnesota signed a pair of former UConn stars Friday in Moriah Jefferson, who was recently waived by Dallas, and Evina Westbrook, who was drafted by the Seattle Storm last month before being waived prior to opening day. The Lynx also brought back three players -- Yvonne Turner, Nikolina Milić and Hannah Sjerven -- on hardship contracts.

MINNEAPOLIS — It was a groundbreaking fight, with a rallying cry heard around the world. "You hope that it's the start of something, it's an inflection point its what you hope," said Minnesota Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve, after U.S. women's soccer players reached a landmark settlement with the sport’s American governing body over equal pay.

There’s no question that Cheryl Reeve put in the work to earn the job as U.S. women’s basketball team head coach. The South Jersey native and product of Washington Township High and La Salle is a three-time WNBA coach of the year and owns six WNBA titles: two as an assistant coach with the former Detroit Shock (2006 and ‘08), and four as the head coach of the Minnesota Lynx (2011, ‘13, ‘15, and ‘17). She’s also been involved with USA Basketball for a long time, including as an assistant coach with the 2016 and ‘20 Olympic gold-medal winners.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado (Jan. 19, 2022) –WNBA head coaches Vickie Johnson (Dallas Wings), Curt Miller (Connecticut Sun), Mike Thibault (Washington Mystics) and James Wade (Chicago Sky) have been selected to support USA Women’s National Team head coach Cheryl Reeve (Minnesota Lynx) at the 2022 USA National Team training camp and FIBA World Cup Qualifying Tournament in Washington, D.C. The February 2022 USA National Team coaching staff was selected by the USA Basketball Women’s National Team Committee and approved by the USA Basketball Board of Directors.

It's hard to know where to start in responding to P.A. Jensen's Dec. 12 commentary "For social justice, Coach Reeve should give up one of her jobs." His opinion is that if Minnesota Lynx Coach Cheryl Reeve truly believes in supporting women of color, she should quit one of her jobs (or her wife should) so a woman of color could have the opportunity Cheryl has worked so hard for her entire life.

We are awash in games. In a market featuring all of the major sports and a slew of successful teams in what should never be termed minor sports, there is always an event commanding our attention. That's why we should revisit what happened last Wednesday morning, when Minnesota history occurred.

Cheryl Reeve, adorned in a blaze red pantsuit emblematic of not only her newest endeavor but also her passion for the game of basketball, descended the Target Center stairs. Her position was an unfamiliar one and definitely not one she ever imagined being in while manning the sidelines at Indiana State University in the mid-1990s, barking out plays during her first-ever head coaching gig at the ripe old age of 28.
