"This is their second year playing college basketball and so for them to do what they have done and to do it in this spotlight, under this kind of pressure against the teams that we've played is absolutely unbelievable." This marked the fourth consecutive year that UConn had at least one All-American. Huskies junior Gabby Williams earned second team honors. "They are tough individuals and they are only going to get better," Auriemma said. "When I see our young players play, I close my eyes and I like to think, 'Man, this is the worst they are going to be. They are only going to get better. You cross your fingers when you say that."
