The Kentucky women's basketball season is over, but they got some good news with the announcement that Clara Strack will return next year.

The Kentucky Wildcats women's basketball season ended on Saturday with a tough loss to Texas in the NCAA Tournament. It wasn't what they were hoping for, but it was a successful one for Kenny Brooks and his squad. There were many bright spots this season, butone of the biggest stories was Clara Strack's continued development into a star.

She was certainly a big reason the Wildcats made the Sweet 16, and though it was a disappointing Saturday, Strack did deliver some great news. She's coming back for her senior season. This season, Strack averaged 16.

9 points, 10. 3 rebounds, and 2. 6 blocks per game.

She was also instrumental in Kentucky's two tournament wins, posting 18 points and 15 rebounds in their win over West Virginia. Strack received a number of honors for her play this year. She was named first-team All-SEC, SEC All-Defensive team, and was an honorable mention for the All-American team.
