Linda Partlow, who coached for over twenty years at ICC, was recently inducted into the Mississippi Association of Junior and Community Colleges Sports Hall of Fame.
Linda coached tennis and softball. Her teams won nine state championships, five regionals and were runner ups five times. She was coach of the year four times and "was elected to the NJCAA Women's Tennis Hall of Fame in 2001"
Some of us are old enough to remember when a very young Linda began playing tennis at Cecil's.
During her tenure at tennis coach at ICC, her strongest competitors were usually the team from Hinds, where I taught. I kept up with Linda through our coach.
