Pat Head grew on a farm in Clarksville, Tennessee with her three brothers and younger. Richard Head, which was her father, was a severe man. He whipped his children if they broke anything in the house. Pat’s mother would go to her daughter games and support her. She had said, "I watch the scores more than the defense," Head said. "Tonight, (Tennessee) has really done a good job." She went to a school named Methodist church. Pat summit came far in life with the help of her parents and her brothers and sister.
