Although the Lady Cats historic season ended sooner than Edmonson County had hoped, the team still enjoyed record-breaking feats and accolades, even after the season's end.

After the Region final, the end of season awards were presented and Head Coach Kevin Jackson, senior guard Caitlin Simon, and senior guard Peyton Martin all received top honors.

Coach Kevin Jackson was named Region 3 Coach of the Year, Caitlin Simon was named 3rd Region Player of the Year, All-Region 1st Team, and Region All-Tournament team, and Peyton Martin was named to the All-Region 1st Team & Region All-Tournament team.

The Lady Cats finished the season 29-5, the best in school history for a girls basketball team, 12th District Champions for the first time since 1998, the All A Region 3 Champions, and seniors Simon and Martin finished first and fourth (respectively) on the all-time scoring list for the Lady Cats. Simon finished with 2,564 points and Martin finished with 1,740.

Three seniors from this year's team received offers to play at the collegiate level, including: Simon, Martin, and Katlin Collins, although none have committed to any of those schools at this time.
