Sunday was a good day for women's basketball.

In the afternoon, undefeated South Carolina played Iowa and record-breaker Caitlin Clark in the National Championship, drawing a record crowd to ABC.

Then, just hours later, Kansas State center Ayoka Lee announced her intentions to return to Manhattan for one year of eligibility.

We'll let you decide which event is more prominent but the fact is that K-State left Saturday looking like winners.

"This is an iconic time in women's athletics," head coach Jeff Mittie said. "I think that we're coming off a year where there were more eyeballs on women's sports than ever before. ... I think Yoki is one of those players that, going into next year, will have an opportunity to be the face of women's basketball."
