Is success measured in championships? Overall wins? Impact on the lives of young people?
Any way you look at it, many believe gymnastics head coach Sarah Patterson has to be near or at the top of that list for Alabama.

Her team is currently riding a 104-meet winning streak against Auburn. And on Saturday, Alabama won its sixth NCAA championship — its second in two years.
Patterson’s sixth championship ties her with legendary football coach Paul “Bear” Bryant. The same Bryant who is immortalized in Alabama lore. The same Bryant who has streets, buildings and even a stadium named after him.
The same Bryant who hired Patterson in 1979.
