Married living Florida Southern College legends who shaped women's sports, Norm and Kathy Benn

We start the second season of The Polk Experience with two living Florida Southern College legends, Norm and Kathy Benn.

Mrs. Benn spent 48 years at Florida Southern as a faculty member in the school’s physical education department and was instrumental in organizing the school’s women’s athletic program. She was their first coach in women’s basketball, volleyball and tennis.

Mr. Benn was the head women’s basketball coach from 1985-97. He led the Lady Moccasins to five SSC regular season titles, six SSC Tournament titles, and the team’s only South Region Championship and Elite Eight appearance.
