"Andre Patterson noticed something different about his daughter Ayanna when she came home to Indiana from her first session at UConn earlier this summer."

"When she came back after being up there working out, there was a confidence level about herself that she had figured out she could do this," Andre said. "I saw a different energy in her body, a different focus in her mind and saw different results. … When she came back from those six weeks, she was Jedi-focused."

I am loving reading these comments. Knowing that Ayanna not only felt comfortable during the workouts but also had that confidence that she could play at the next level, is all that matters. I am excited for her and the program. Ayanna is going to be a special player.

The first time she takes the court in a real college game,she will be this jedi-focused and she will see 5 seals. Will be fun to watch.

Yup

She has a pro-ready body. I've seen soft hands and a soft mid-range shot. She is also incredibly quick.

Like your namesake, she is a thoroughbred.
