Stef sure does love Katy Perry.

 

[pinotbear]

coming out of the time-out, Katy Perry's "Fireworks" is playing on the P.A. - and, Stef is singin' along..love it!

 

[Icebear]

Chong in and immediately scores.

 

[rvwsleep]

Stef mouthing the words to "Firework". It was playing at the arena during the time out.

 

[pinotbear]

Saniya in.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

Rutgers seems to be playing better this half.

 

[Flyegirl]

Loving all the Minutes Kiah is getting!

Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis has seven points. Take that mononucleosis! #UConnwomen

 

[pinotbear]

Rutgers is 24th ranked, and is getting absolutely crushed - 62-25, almost 11 minutes left. Kiah in, and doin' good stuff.

Loving all the Minutes Kiah is getting!

The more she does, the more confidence she gets. The more confidence she gets, the more minutes she gets.

Rutgers takes a timeout. For what?

I would imagine the script written for Breanna Stewart's senior day introduction will need to be on a teleprompter #BleedBlue

There is a fan in the student section holding the biggest picture of @BrianaPulido I have ever seen. #MiamiHeat

I love Stef dancing her way out with her parents pregame. She is such a Freebird.

Banks in.

Chong, Banks and Kiah on the floor with seniors Stef and Bria.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Chong with a 3!

 

[Icebear]

We have our season game spread covered.

 

[Flyegirl]

They are all playing great! For the seniors!

 

[pap49cba]

John A. is reporting that SI is doing a story on Stewie.... And she won't even have to wear a bathing suit.

Kiah with 10 rbds.

Four straight 20-point games for Bria Hartley, who needs to be a first-team All-American because no one is better than her right now

 

[Icebear]

Someone left the back door open. Stewie comes on in.

 

[Bigpetunia]

31 points in 38 minutes! Hard to win with that!!

 

[BearJWS]

Next stoppage, it's time to take the Stef & Bria out, so they can get their standing ovation.

 

[Buzzyboy]

It seems like the past five or ten minutes of this half have gotten quite ugly. I'm only reading the ESPN Gamecast but it appears like a bunch of turnovers by both sides, fouls, missed shots have been happening. I have no doubt that the kids are playing with some intensity but I gather it hasn't been too pretty to watch.

 

[Icebear]

Standing ovation here at home, too.

 

[VAMike23]

Great fall by Banks ! That's how you do it .)

 

[Blueballer]

Big salute to our SENIORS!

 

[Buzzyboy]

Next stoppage, it's time to take the Stef & Bria out, so they can get their standing ovation.

I agree that these two ladies really need to hear it from the fans who know just how much they've contributed to this program over their four years, particularly Stef. I'm hopeful Geno is on the same page.
