An amazing young woman who has already accomplished great things. I wish her well.

Congrats to Batouly - one of my favorite Huskies from an eloquence perspective as well as the joy she had, and honor she felt, in being at UCONN. Such a well-spoken young woman and I hope she is a smashing success!

 

[Bama fan]

Glad for her, and excited for the kids at Blair.

 

[RedStickHusky]

Good for her. Hope her years working with Geno & CD pays off for her.

 

[huskeynut]

Excellent news. All the success to Batouly.

 

[Vowelguy]

Wow and congrats to her!
But isnt this surprising? I mean isnt Blair a fairly elite program, and they're taking an inexperienced person as HC?

 

[GoingPostal]

All the Best to Batouly. She's a remarkable and inspiring young woman. She will be a wonderful role model for her players.

She must have really wowed them at the interview. She's a very impressive young woman.

This is a Prep school that (even though none admit it) recruit their top athletes. My son wrestled for a NJ public H.S. Blair Academy is always nationally ranked. Sometimes #1 in the Country. They had wrestlers from all over the Country on their team. Many wind up wrestling for the top colleges. Many don’t pay that tuition.

Now maybe some day too she will send one of her players to Uconn...

Blair apparently has a strong women's basketball program and Camera would not have been chosen her if Blair did not believe that she would be a great coach, She probably really impressive when she was a student there.

She must have really soaked up everything during UConn practices and on the bench; and have gotten great recommendations from Geno and CD.

To start off as a head coach at a serious program is really amazing.

BATOULY! Good for her. What a shame with her knees - she had so much potential. She could have been the next Tina Charles with her size & talent.

Congrats Batouly and God Bless

Blair Academy is a national powerhouse in wrestling having won 40 national prep titles. They have also had great basketball players, girls and boys over the years. It's an idyllic rustic setting. Back in the peach basket days in Jersey I played against them and my son in the 2010s did the same. She can do very well there. She had a very unsatisfying college career hampered by injuries. Often that's a recipe for a great coach. I am sure she will transfer the UCONN way to Blair and I will definitely follow her there.
