"I can't help but think [Pat Summitt] is looking down on us right now."
Michelle Marciniak played for Pat Summitt at Tennessee in the 1990s, and was on the 1996 championship team.

Pedal For Alzheimer's organization donated $70 thousand to the UT Medical Center for Alzheimer's research on Sunday.
In the video above, she explains her purpose behind the bike ride.
