"Kerstin was a great coach and role model. She creates a great culture and focused on pushing everyone on the roster to be the best they could. If I had a complaint, it was that she is not the greatest tactician or strategist. Xs and Os aren't her strength and she leans on assistants a bit too much her. Most teams know that her teams can't handle a zone and it creates at least 1 or 2 games a year Duke loses but shouldn't;t. "

"She's a mother first, and cares about all her players as people not just as assets to the team. This was one of the most important factors in my decision to play for Duke and it has held true in my years as a player with her. She's always had my back. "

"Coach Kimel was honest with me throughout my whole time at Duke and was always pushing me to be a better athlete, student, and person."
