Young Lady Bears squad looks to go deep into postseason with help of veteran leaders

By Adam Gibson | Sports Writer

The Lady Bears come into the 2018-19 season ranked as the No. 4 team in the country in the preseason rankings for the fourth year in the row. Head coach Kim Mulkey is entering her 19th season as head coach for the Lady Bears and last year coached the team to win the Big 12 Championship and into March before the squad was eliminated in the Sweet 16.

This season the women’s basketball team has to adjust to a younger team and adjust to older impact players, like guard Kristy Wallace and forward Dekeiya Cohen, graduating to leave the team with only four upperclassmen out of the 12 players on the roster.
