Huffman was leading 48-44 with 1:41 left and trying to hold off a Rams rally when Slater collapsed on the bench during a timeout.
Huffman girls basketball coach Lin Slater collapsed in the final minutes of Saturday’s game with rival Ramsay at Bill Harris Arena in Birmingham.
The game was called at that point. Administrators asked the coaches of the Huffman and Ramsay boys teams if they still wanted to play their scheduled game. Once they heard Slater was awake and talking, they agreed to play. It was announced during the boys game that Slater was alert and responsive with her family.“I really didn’t see what happened,” Ramsay coach JoVanka Ward said. “I saw coach Slater was down. I think she was already down, writing on the board.
She played high school basketball at Central-Coosa in Rockford, helping the team to a pair of final four appearances. Slater played college basketball at Southern Union. She began her coaching career at Childersburg from 2006-2012. She had multiple 20-win seasons there and was named Talladega County Coach of the Year twice.
