Olivia noticed all 4 UConn coaches were there, made her feel like she has a “new family”… Also, Rebecca Lobo was there and sat next to her Dad. She is a great recruit for the Huskies…! Congrats UConn and Olivia..!

The Butler game had a scoring run/defensive stand by UConn that may have been one of the best ever. With 6:56 to play in the 1st period, UConn was down 10-6. Butler was 4-4 from the floor. The Huskies then went on a defensive stand and offensive explosion that lasted for 9 minutes and 45...

Just two games into her UConn career, freshman Blanca Quinonez has joined the party..!! Geno is already comparing her to Sveta, but for several reasons, including that she drives him nuts. To his question about whether a shot she took was "a good shot?" Blanca replied in a puzzled voice, "If I...

Two Loyola stats stand out from last night's game. First, the Ramblers had 9 baskets and 36 turnovers. That is a 4 to 1 ratio in the wrong direction. Second, the Loyola team scored 8 points in the 2nd and 3rd periods, combined..! I don't remember an opponent scoring only 3 points in a ten minute...
