Ran across this older article from the CT Post about Uconn Women's injuries particularly knees. I found it really interesting as it went into significant detail about knee injuries with women basketball players. I doubt much has changed since it was written. Apologize if everyone has seen it...

I'd say Ash had a heck of a game vs Maryland - 10 pts, a couple of rebounds, a steal, and no turnovers in 15 min on the court. I really like this kid and want to see more of her.

Never really understood the sport, but Nika has to be jumping with joy, so I'm now a fan of the Croatian team. Hope it eases the frustration of her injury a bit.

Is it my imagination or has a lot of the team been affected with "loose hands" under the basket this year? Particularly AE (who I remember as sure-handed last year), Dorka, and the younger players. Assuming I'm not dreaming, Other teams more physical? Lack of focus? Anyway, interested in others...

I tried to watch Megan a lot on Sunday (picked a good game for it!) and was really struck by the difference over last year. Aside from the mental part of the game, man, she really has become a physical presence. Reminded me of the video of her and Pheesa working with Pheesa's trainer last...

Wow, looks like the whole team raided Lou's makeup bag for eyelash stuff! SOOO nice to see Justine again!

Hope this hasn't been posted yet. What a pleasure to hear her speak.

The past several years UConn has been pretty lucky in terms of injuries - thankfully. Now we have Lou with relatively serious post-season surgery, Makayla recovering from blood clot(s), and of course Crystal's shin splints. Hopefully Batouly is fully healed. The team lost a very talented...

I can't remember Lou playing such an all-around game. The stats may show me wrong, but boy she seemed to be everywhere (and nowhere). By nowhere, I mean it wasn't a "Lou scores 24" game. She was grabbing rebounds, aggressive in the paint, tenacious D, had some awesome assists, and oh yeah...

Perhaps just me, but I've been visiting some other teams' web sites, and have to say that in comparison the official UConn site is pretty poor. #1 Team should have great site.

My goodness, if I didn't know better I'd suspect photoshop at work in the pic of Lou crushing the ball between her forearm and bicep. Or a whole lot of time in the weight room, maybe. Great shoulder development too Lou. Nice look! UCONNHUSKIES.COM :: University Of Connecticut Official Athletic...

With the addition of Andra and Lexi to some seriously dimpled upper classmen, no one can touch us!

I have no idea how/why I suddenly had an avatar a few weeks back, but I LOVE it. So again, to whomever is responsible, many thanks!

Just watched a few of her tapes and this interview on YouTube and boy she seems like the kind of kid who'd flourish in Storrs. Of course she'll probably follow her sisters to ND.....then again Lou broke with tradition.

Man, watching Gabby maintain her composure, answering questions through her tears, so strong yet so vulnerable. She played her guts out. Hard for me to watch but testimony to the extraordinary young women she is.

Hilarious comment by Geno.....I guess they were announcing something after the game about his tournament win totals and Lou looks at him and says "You s**k".

Man, I'm so sick of trying to read links that end up going to the Hartford Courant and then being blocked from reading because I've been there too often. Seems to me that if you're going to post stuff on the net, you ought to let anyone read it, instead of using it as a tool to sell...

A lovely, lyrical take on Gabby. Nice piece & worth the read. ".......but there is a calm, floating assurance about Williams. The elegant way she imposes herself on a game with her vision, positioning and anticipation. Her ability not only to jump high, but also to quickly jump a second time, a...

Not good for Holly

I admit to being a huge Gabby BB fan, but after watching MTM Episode 3 I'm even more impressed with her as a young woman. She comes across as such a thoughtful, mature, deep person. If memory serves, Geno has said she's intellectually very aware & involved in what goes on outside of BB and I...

I noticed everyone got a ring (or at least a ring box) on Monday night. I'm guessing the actual rings come later? Are they monsters like men's sports rings or are they more subdued for the ladies? Just curious.

I want to know when her cookbook is scheduled for publication. That shrimp & grits looked great and I'll bet she's got a bunch more. Maybe a cookbook of team favorites, or better yet a video series. C'mon UConn PR Dept., get moving!

May just be me, but I thought Nat and Kayla had some pretty good minutes. And Kayla seemed a bit speedier today (or maybe just wishful thinking)?

On the unexplainable and apparent inevitability of the 100th win: "Saniya took two charges. That's like Halley's Comet. Lou got an offensive rebound and got fouled. Come on. Forget global warming, that's the biggest phenomena that I've seen."

I am still PO'd about the way ESPN mis-handled the start of the game. Why they couldn't transfer the Texas/FSU game to ESPN News and elected to do it with the UConn/SC game was so bad. At the very least they should have done a split screen until the other game finally exhausted itself. "Come on...
