In a photo from Oct. 16, 2012, Oakland University women's basketball coach Beckie Francis looks over her team's practice in Rochester, Mich. Francis tells The Associated Press she was sexually assaulted by her dad, who is now deceased, from the age of 4 until she was in the seventh grade. The 47-year-old coach has decided to speak out against the problem in part because of the Jerry Sandusky scandal at Penn State. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio)
