Kathy Behrens ’85 leads pro basketball’s drive for social change While Kathy Behrens ’85 was a multi-sport athlete at the University of Hartford, she never thought her time in sports would go beyond college. But she was wrong. Today, instead of swinging a tennis racket and hitting free throws, she’s helping current and former basketball players make a difference in communities around the world. In almost 20 years with the National Basketball Association (NBA), Behrens has had the chance to travel the globe, see countless games up close, and interact with the game’s greatest stars.
