Women’s NCAA Tournament 2012: Brittney Griner Confirms She Will Return To Baylor Next Year
Bill Hanstock is a writer, author and Emmy Award-winning producer. He began writing for SB Nation in 2011.
Before the championship game even takes place, the Lady Bears received some great news regarding star player Brittney Griner -- the 6-foot-8 junior will return to school for her final year.
Doug Feinberg of the Associated Press, via SI.com, reports that Griner will remain in school to complete her degree.
“I’m staying, I made a commitment,” Griner said. “I’m going to stay here until my time’s up, so all the speculations of me leaving early are false.”
Although there is a good chance that Griner is on the radar of a good many WNBA teams, they will have to wait a while longer to seek out her services.
