Gabby Gets Homecoming Game In Nevada Next Year

Is there now a non-conference schedule with dates available? The Nevada-Reno game completes UConn's non-conference schedule, right? No more slots?

Correct. Well ...unless Syracuse requests a homecoming game for one of its juniors or seniors. :D :rolleyes:

Maybe in a few years as I notice that Syracuse has a freshman named Desiree Elmore from Hartford, CT...... or maybe not.
 
The Sun arena just like Bridgeport are neutral sites. They are definitely not home courts for either men or women's teams - they are certainly more neutral than Rupp Arena which is the KY men's arena, but considered by the NCAA as a neutral site for the KY women

HAHAHAHAHA

from the article The UCLA game will be a homecoming for sophomore guard Katie Lou Samuelson, who grew up about 45 minutes from Pauley Pavilion in Huntington Beach, California.

Maybe at 2am with no construction on the road.

My son will get to go. He lives walkable to Paulley just north of campus. When he was going to college near Chicago he got to see the the men play at ND. He founded the original version of the UConn sports chat group. Big UConn fan even though he never attended there.

This is fantastic for a UConn fan like me! I thought I would never get to see them play live. Reno is about an 8 hour drive one-way from where I live, but that's no biggie.

I live in Sacramento about 2 and half hours away. If you are planning to spend the night in Reno, Silver legacy Casino rates are about $59 a night for a Tuesday

Thanks for the advice. I'm too excited to post much more now. Watching UConn play live was a bucket list item for me that I never thought I'd check off. Whoo who!
 
I was at the UCdavis game a couple years it was awesome, in the 2018-2019 UConn will be in Berkley ,ca to play the Cal Bears

Can't wait for the UCLA game as it's about 20 minutes away from me. I'll probably take a flight to Reno for the Nevada game too...

I'm planning on making the UCLA game - live in Phoenix plus we used to live in LA so have friends there. Any advice on how/when to get single game tix?

I plan to be in San Diego or Irvine for Thanksgiving. I may stay over and fly to Reno. I'd like to pay tribute to the Gabbulous One!

That is so awesome that they named the arena after Tierney Lawlor! ;)

Michigan State game in Eugene is on Saturday 25th (Thanksgiving weekend), and the Reno game is Tuesday 28th. Wonder if the UCLA game will be just before those two, just after them, or in between. ????

I hope it's the same trip. I'd love to go to Pauley.

Wow that will be a long road trip. I would guess the Ucla game will be the Tues or weds before. Thanksgiving at the Samueksons?

It is a fairly standard 'west coast' (or for west coast teams - east coast) swing - schedule two or three games over the space of a week or so, and don't change time zones during the swing.

I have never seen UConn take a 3 game, 10 day road trip, which is what this could amount to. In fact not sure I've seen any college team do that.

It is also over thanksgiving week - and right now it is 25th and 28th which is no where near ten days - if they play on the 23rd or the 30th it would be 6 or 7 days depending on when they fly.

I highly doubt that they are playing Thanksgiving night. If it's Wednesday, they fly out Tues. Come back following Weds. That's 9 days.
