I have been a pretty rabid sports fan for most of my blessedly long life. Among other things, here's one observation I've made. In games characterized by score keeping, and in those wherein the WIN is awarded to the team that, by game's end, has amassed the most points, two things are important: 1. How many points your team scores. 2. The number of points to which the opposing team can be limited. Sometimes I feel, especially in basketball, that appreciation of the second of these factors can lead to a rather lonely perspective. UConn WBB is, I'm happy to say, traditionally very good at putting points on the board. On a given night, one of several players can step to the forefront and shine. Rarely does any one player outshine the others night after night on that end. The same does not hold true on defense. UConn's best player on that end is a true stalwart [U]every[/U] time she suits up. Those who hand out the awards may not get it, Gabby, but some of us do!
