Reecer's Piece: Give Lady Tops credit where credit is due

Here is a question for you: Out of all the athletic programs here at WKU, which one is currently the most underrated?

You might be able to make a solid case for a few sports, but one program stands out from the rest as its recent ascension has been greatly underappreciated.

Under Head Coach Michelle Clark-Heard, the revival of the women’s basketball program over the past four seasons is simply unprecedented.

Since Clark-Heard’s arrival before the 2012-2013 season, the Lady Tops have amassed a 95-29 overall record and a 46-10 home record at Diddle Arena.

In the past two seasons, the Lady Tops have also enjoyed two different conference championships in the Sun Belt and in Conference USA.
