Dolson is also quick to credit another person who has been there with Auriemma since the first day – associate head coach Chris Dailey.
“She is kind of behind the scenes,” Dolson said. “She is that coach that teaches you the basics, teaches you how (hard) to go and always gets your butt in gear and make sure you are doing the right things. Sometimes the rules she has are tough for people but she keeps people in line and have them focus on the same goal so they are working together so I think the things that CD does are just as important if not more as the things that Coach does.
“It is incredible how well their relationship has worked for so long, they balance each other out. They bicker and it is always fun to watch the two of them because they are like two little kids who pick on each other. One will pick on the other and the next day the other one will pick on the other and it is constant banter back and forth. It is a lot of fun. It goes back and forth. They are both hard on us but if Coach is really getting on us in practice, CD will let up a little bit and make sure she is supporting us and doing the right thing. Sometimes Coach is going through drills and CD will make sure she is on us, make sure we are going hard and running, doing the right things and staying together as a group.”
