Hall Call Ep 004 - Nancy Lieberman 8 - 5 -19 by Hall Call

1992 Virginia Sports Hall of Fame, Nancy Lieberman, is what you would call a basketball lifer, and a successful one at that. A native of New York, Lieberman was a 3-time All-American, and 2-time National Champion with Old Dominion University Women’s Basketball, represented her country for USA Basketball, played in the WNBA, and has served numerous roles as a coach and commentator.

Currently however, the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Famer is setting a new standard in the BIG3 Basketball League. Now in her second season as head coach of Team Power, Lieberman made history when she was hired last year as the first female head coach in a men’s professional sports league.

Beginning with her time at ODU in the late 1970’s, Lieberman has been an advocate for opportunity and equality in sports. Having won the BIG3 Championship with Team Power in 2018, Lieberman’s goal is to continue to influence and inspire in whatever role comes her way.

Lieberman joined the Hall Call Podcast to talk about her basketball journey, and her role in highlighting equality, opportunity, and inclusion in sports.
