After finishing her first season with more wins than any other first-year head coach in the nation, University of Kentucky women’s basketball head coach Kyra Elzy has earned the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association Spalding Maggie Dixon NCAA Division I NCAA Rookie Coach of the Year.
The Spalding Maggie Dixon NCAA Division I Rookie Coach of the Year award is named in honor of the late Maggie Dixon, former Army head coach, whose success during her inaugural year at the Black Knights’ helm was remarkable. Dixon was named 2006 Patriot League Coach of the Year after leading Army to the conference title and its first-ever NCAA Division I tournament appearance. Dixon passed away on April 6, 2006, just a few weeks following the Black Knights’ appearance in the NCAA Tournament.
A new daycare center is set to open in Hazard later this month. A local woman, Chassidy Woods, said if things go as planned, she will be opening the Childrenâs Cloud Daycare from her home in mid-March.
Woods said she had intended to be open by the beginning of March, but due to delays caused by the pandemic, that date was pushed to later this month.
âTime has been the biggest obstacle I have faced so far. With the pandemic happening, it has slowed down almost everything, taking a longer than expected time to open,â she said.
Woods said she is CPR and First Aid certified, and has had a lot of experience with childcare facilities. The goal of opening a daycare, she said, has been something she has wanted for several years.
