March Madness is here, and on the women’s side, fans will be locked into an uber-talented senior class full of star power.
This year’s seniors are especially impressive in that they’ve enjoyed successful careers even after the COVID-19 pandemic seriously impacted their freshman season. As a result, they are some of the last athletes who received the option from the NCAA to return for an extra season of competition.
