SUMMARY:Scott Allen Frost\, Author	- "Livin' On A Chair"
DESCRIPTION:On a whim Scott Allen Frost went for a dirt bike ride on a beautiful afternoon in May 2009 and broke his neck\, leaving him paralyzed from the shoulders down. Terrified\, he was left to choose. Give up on life or try to make it better than it was before. Motivated by a series of surreal miracles that followed a cryptic commandment heard in the dark of his hospital room\, Scott chose to live life in the face of tremendous adversity. \nSince his accident\, Scott has served as President of Titan Brands. He and his team have designed\, opened\, and operate four restaurants in Nevada including Hussong’s Cantina and Slice of Vegas Pizza at the Shoppes at Mandalay Place\, The Silver Legacy Resort and Casino in Reno\, and Hussong’s Cantina in Boca Park. \nScott will share his story of his journey from lying hopeless in a ditch after his accident to discovering the power of faith and love as he persevered through a grueling physical rehabilitation. You will be moved and inspired by the lessons he’s learned after he began a new life in a wheelchair and left pondering the power that resides in and around all of us.

DESCRIPTION:Bill Laimbeer\, a two-time WNBA Coach of the Year\, three-time WNBA Champion\, and two-time NBA Champion\, was named the president of basketball operations and head coach of the Las Vegas Aces on December 8\, 2017. \nDefying all expectations\, the Aces stayed in the playoff chase until the season’s last week\, improving from 8 to 14 wins on the year. Laimbeer molded number one overall draft pick A’ja Wilson into the WNBA Rookie of the Year\, and fifth-year guard Kayla McBride and second-year point guard Kelsey Plum enjoyed their best seasons as professionals. \nLas Vegas expects to make a run at the playoffs next season\, and for the foreseeable future\, after winning the 2019 WNBA Draft Lottery\, giving them the first pick in next year’s draft for an unprecedented third year in a row. \nPrior to coming to Las Vegas\, Laimbeer guided the New York Liberty to three straight 20-win seasons—the first time in franchise history the Liberty reached the 20-win plateau in three consecutive years. \nPrior to joining the Liberty\, Laimbeer spent eight seasons (2002-09) as general manager and head coach of the Detroit Shock where he earned WNBA Coach of the Year honors in his first full season as head coach (2003). He took over a team that finished 9-23 the previous year and led them to a league-best 25 wins the following season. The 16-win improvement was the largest in WNBA history. \nLaimbeer led the Shock to a 137-93 (.596) overall record\, including six-straight playoff appearances as the squad won WNBA Championships in 2003\, 2006 and 2008. \nPrior to returning to the WNBA\, Laimbeer spent two seasons as an assistant in the NBA with the Minnesota Timberwolves (2009-2011). \nA 14-year NBA veteran\, Laimbeer was a four-time All-Star for the Detroit Pistons. As a member of the famed “Bad Boys\,” Laimbeer totaled 13\,790 points and 10\,400 rebounds in his career\, becoming only the 19th player in NBA history to eclipse 10\,000 in both categories. A key member of back-to-back NBA Championships in 1989 and 1990\, he had his No. 40 jersey retired by the franchise in 1995. \nLaimbeer played collegiately at Notre Dame from 1975-79.

SUMMARY:Coach Kathy Olivier - UNLV Women’s Basketball
DESCRIPTION:When UNLV was searching for its next women’s basketball coach – the school turned to one of its own by hiring former Lady Rebel All-American Kathy Olivier as the eighth full-time head coach in UNLV women’s basketball history on April 22\, 2008. \nMost recently\, Olivier guided the Lady Rebels\, picked fifth in the preseason\, to their first-ever Mountain West conference title\, as UNLV claimed a share of the 2018-19 regular season title thanks to a school-record 14 league victories (14-4 MW mark). It was the first conference title of any kind for UNLV since the 1993-94 Big West championship\, and the team advanced to the WNIT for the third time in her 10 years in Las Vegas. \nOlivier came to UNLV after serving as head coach at UCLA for 15 years (from May 3\, 1993\, to March 11\, 2008). While leading the Bruins she helped produce two Pac-10 players of the year\, three Pac-10 freshmen of the year\, a Pac-10 team championship\, a Pac-10 tournament championship and a trip to the 1999 Elite Eight. Prior to taking over as the head coach\, as an assistant Olivier was instrumental in landing two-sport standout Natalie Williams\, recognized as the Pac-10’s Athlete of the Decade in a 1996 vote of conference officials. The dynamic Bruin coach originally joined the UCLA staff in the summer of 1986. In her seven seasons as an assistant\, the team enjoyed five winning years and reached the NCAA Tournament in two of the final four years. In 1991-92\, the Bruins compiled a record of 21-10 and advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16. Olivier began her coaching career at her alma mater\, UNLV\, as a graduate assistant in 1981-82. From there it was on to UC Irvine as an assistant coach (1982-83)\, and then USC\, where she was on the Trojan staff for three years (1983-84 through 1985-86) as an assistant. USC\, led by sophomore Cheryl Miller\, won the NCAA title in Olivier’s first year (1984) and reached the championship game in her third season (1986). \nThe former Kathy Ricks\, Olivier was a standout player at Cal State Fullerton and then at UNLV. As a freshman (1977-78) at CSF\, she averaged 15.6 points and 9.2 rebounds her first season and raised her scoring average to 19.3 as a sophomore.
