The University of Cincinnati announced Tuesday it would start a national search for a new women's basketball coach because Michelle Clark-Heard would not return for a sixth season.
“I want to thank Coach Clark-Heard for her dedication to our women’s basketball program over the last five years,” Director of Athletics John Cunningham said in a press release. “We appreciate all of the time and effort she gave to our student-athletes and our university.
“Our history, recent facility upgrades, continued investment and future in the Big 12 make this a very attractive job. Cincinnati women’s basketball can be a contender for championships and we are going to do everything we can to get this program among the best in our new league. We will find the right fit to lead our program and develop our young women on and off the floor.”
Clark-Heard was 74-75 during her tenure.
