SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS – University of the Incarnate Word women's basketball head coach Kate Henderson resigned her position on Monday following a 6-23 season.

Henderson had been with the program for 11 years, including the last nine as a full-time assistant coach or head coach.  She spent three seasons as the head coach of the Cardinals in the program's transition years as a Division I program.  She was 19-66 overall and just 7-43 against Southland Conference opponents.

"We thank Kate for everything she has done over her 11 years at UIW and we wish her the best in her future endeavors," said UIW director of athletics John Williams.

Henderson was the top assistant coach for the Cardinals in their last six seasons as a member of Division II.  The program went 100-69 during her time as the top assistant coach winning a Heartland Conference Tournament title in 2008-09 and a Heartland Conference regular season title in 2009-10.

Williams will begin a national search immediately for a new head coach.
