Sale, the fifth active National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics’ head coach to reach 600 total victories is the winningest women’s basketball coach in Morningside history. He has also established his teams as perennial contenders for a national title, with the majority of his season’s concluding at the NAIA national championships. Sale was named the NAIA Division II National Coach of the Year in 2004, 2005, 2009, and 2015 after he guided the Mustangs to NAIA II National Championships in each of those seasons. His 2008-09 team finished with a perfect record of 38-0 to become only the second team in history to capture the NAIA Division II crown with an undefeated record after they defeated Hastings College 68-63 in the National Championship Game.
