If #TBS is voted MVP of the Final Four, she would be just the third freshman ever, the first since Tennessee's Tonya Edwards in 1987.

The others were Cheryl Miller in 1983 and Clarissa Davis of Texas in 1986 #UConnwomen

Kelly's next rebound will give her a double double. Go Kels!

Corrected - would have given her a double double. Forgot Geno took her out.

91-56 UCONN. Jeff Walz was right that L-ville might have to score 90+ tonight to win. It wasn't even close.

Kelly, Kelly, Kelly. Such a fine swan-song.

Only Uconn has won a dual championship in mens and womens basketball and Uconn has a shot at it next year.

This is the team I thought we had in December! So focused. So good. So fine. Champions!

I thank Louisville for knocking off Baylor, but still feel like we have been cheated out of an epic championship game. Oh well.

 

[Icebear]

Thanks everyone for a great night in the thread and a tremendous amount of good mojo.

 

[JellyBean]

Well congrats, fellow Husky fans.

 

[UConnChapette]

So proud of these young women! They put all the pieces together, and are banged up, but still found the heart, the drive, the WILL to win in very convincing fashion!
