Currently Spencer has made 95 3 point baskets, which is tied for 5th (w/Sheffer) for the most 3 point baskets in a single year. He needs 5 more to become the 4th player to make 100 3's in a season. Hamilton ended his career with 99. Newton has 963 points, needs 37 to become the 53rd player to...

After the game, Geno mentioned that he was meeting with a potential recruit after the game. Anyone know the identity of this player?

With his 3 3 point baskets yesterday, Newton is the 27th player to make 100 3 point baskets in his career. He is currently #96 with 102, With Spencer's 4 3 point baskets, he now has 88 (#30) and only needs 12 more to become the 28th.

I enjoyed the pass to Diarra who was standing near the basket which was intercepted by Stewart in midair for an easy layup. The look on Diarra’s face was priceless.

Yesterday, Newton tied Rudy Gay for 63rd place in all-time scoring with 870 points. #62 is Amida Brimah with 895 points. Karaban tied Jordan Hawkins for 18th place in all-time made three point baskets with 136. #17 is Jalen Adams with 139. Karaban is #71 in all-time scoring with 803. #70 is...

2004, traveled to Philadelphia to watch a men’s and women’s vs Villanova doubleheader. Men played in the afternoon and Villanova were favored. It was a great game. Men down by 3 with seconds to go when Anderson hit a baseline 3 to tie the game. We won in OT. Women played in the evening and were...

To be honest, in the last minute of the game, the Kansas player fouled Nika and then used her left hand to intentionally shove Nika in the back and pushed her to the floor. Nika was very upset that it wasn’t called an intentional foul. They showed the play several times and it was very obvious...

Who knows, maybe in his end of the year meeting with coach, it was mutually agreed that he should look for a new home. We don’t know all the dynamics behind the situation and there were a lot of freshmen coming in who needed playing time. He only had one year left and Castle needed minutes.

I really like Geno starting Caroline. Having Aubrey and KK coming off the bench really changes the tempo of the game. Both are super energy players and are going to really cause problems for our opponents second string players. Isuneh also plays a completely different style than Aaliyah...

My favorite thing about Mo was that in her freshmen year, teams backed off her and taunted her to take an outside shot. Sophomore year they didn't do this as much. In her junior and senior years she was a "fantastic" outside shooter. Which really complemented her quickness and driving skills...

Since relocating to Florida, the one thing I really miss is a great sub from Cavello’s, West Main Street, Waterbury. We have tried all of the chain subs and not one of them are anywhere close in comparison. One place I always go to when I’m back in Connecticut.

I was hoping that we matched up with Utah, never played them before. Who knows, the way things are going, maybe we will be in the same conference one day.

After receiving the four freshmen's letters, Geno gave a brief comment on each player and he stated that Qadence may be the most gifted of the four. But I would imagine that it will be determined by the player that offers skills in an area of need. If a big is needed, it could be Ice or Jana...

Thanks meyers7, I believe you have found my excuse. I’m going to stick by and my story is never going to change.

Okay, this was a stupid post. I guess I will blame it on something, I just have to come up with an excuse.

I wonder if any of our current players will take the opportunity of the NCAA rule change regarding allowing numbers 0-99 to change their current number. They could go down in our history to be the first to utilize the number.

UCONN bs Seton Hall Game has started on FS2.

My guess #3

Fantastic, if she can become comfortable shooting a midrange jumper, which will then make her defender have to come guard her, it will open up the basket for her to drive or pass off to an open teammate. Both her scoring and rebounds will increase. Love the fact that she is working to become an...

Portugal, last summer took a river cruise on the Douro River. If you are a wine enthusiast, this is a fantastic experience. The entire cruise is through the mountains and the views are spectacular. Also included a tour into Spain and a long visit to the city of Porto, the home of port wine...

I discussed Ayanna's offensive game in an earlier post. Apposing teams discovered the Ayanna wouldn't shoot a midrange shot. She would always drive to the basket, which usually led to either a turnover or her shot being blocked. Our offense works best when a player catches the ball near the...

OK, you win, once we win the trophy tonight, we will hand it over to Purdue, Houston, Kansas or Alabama because according to F68 one of them should have won it. As stated above, you actually win it by defeating the team you are scheduled to play. We didn't make the brackets or choose our...

Is she the first coach in WBB to win NCAA Championships for two different teams?

The transfer portal will most likely have a very big determination on the rankings come November. There are a lot of big names in the portal and programs will be looking to fill their shortcomings. So to me his rankings don't have any relevance. I really like the our team and believe that...

Dorka will be playing against her prior team Ohio State in the Sweet 16. Should be an interesting and hopefully she will have a "fantastic" game and show them her growth since becoming a Husky. In less than two years, she is now #68 on our all time scoring list with 632 points and #50 on are...

I'm sure that Ayanna has been given directions on what she needs to work on this summer. My guess one aspect of her game would be midrange jump shot, midrange jump shot and midrange jump shot. All the Big East Teams know that when she catches the ball in or near the paint, she won't take the...

Hurley won his 100th game as the Huskies coach. I believe he will remember this win for a long, long time.

In yesterday's game this team broke the all time 3 point made basket season record. The 2013/2014 National Championship team made 287 3 point baskets, this year's team has now made 290. It appears they will be the first to reach the 300 mark. Also, yesterday Jordan Hawkins made three 3 point...

My take was that with the win in hand, Geno gave Villanova a chance to tighten up the score. They are #10 and I believe he didn't want to blow them out and somehow effect their post season seating. He believes in making the conference better and although he wouldn't sacrifice a game, unless he...

We have never played, Michigan, Utah, Missouri, Wisconsin or Colorado. I thought that since the former coach of St. John's went to Michigan she would schedule a home and home series. Great atmosphere in Ann Arbor and a good place to recruit. I guess I just answered my own question...

Strictly speaking on my part, I really hope that she returns, because I really would like her to depart with National Championship. Who knows what would have happened last season if she had been available to play. But hopefully next year will be injury free and we will have a fantastic season...

YKCornelius, I have kept score of every UCONN game since 1995. I then check box score after the game to compare my stats. The discrepancies between the official scorer and myself was by most the since I began keeping score. I also had Nikka with 7 assists. While watching the game I follow it on...

Sun, well that settles that question! But I can tell you that the trucker’s traveling through the state in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s had a completely different interpretation of our state’s nickname.

If we were entirely healthy, we most likely would not be having this discussion. Stamford had all of their height last year and we beat them. Same with South Carolina this year and we only lost by 4. Would really like to see that game if both teams had been completely healthy. Just because...
