Message: [QUOTE="eebmg, post: 3695404, member: 7548"] Not sure id this was linked elsewhere but Alexa putting a bow on things [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.courant.com/sports/uconn-womens-basketball/hc-sp-uconn-women-avail-notebook-20201003-20201003-ad3dfnjt2nfrbazhkisnppzocm-story.html[/URL] “Maybe if we had seven returning players and four new players we would be more advanced right now, but we’re not because we can’t be,” Auriemma said. “We can’t outrun where we are. This is where we are, we have to slow down, and I’m okay with that. We’re not going to be as good at as many things as we were in past years, but at a few things we’ll be just as good as we’ve ever been. So that’s kind of what our approach is right now.” “[Westbrook is] one of those hard-nosed competitors in anything,” Williams said. "If you have one of those on your team, it’s going to spread like wildfire. “Everybody is competitive, really. Anything that we do is a fight. And it hasn’t really been that way necessarily the past couple years, so that is a difference. But I love it because I’m a competitor, so it’s been great.” That competitive spirit has seeped into off-the-court activities, as well. Westbrook described a “Cupcake Wars” competition between pods, where each group made a dozen cupcakes with various decorations that were judged by Auriemma, associate head coach Chris Dailey and a graduate assistant. “It gets competitive. We all try to win. Someone always ends up mad — it’s probably my team because I feel like we can never win a game," Westbrook said. "But it’s all fun and games at the end of the day.” [/QUOTE]
