Geno said Blanca is playing at Villanova on his radio show. Later, when discussing Sunday’s Senior Day, Bob Joyce said ICE was being honored on Senior Day this Sunday. If true, that would suggest she is leaving, which would be news.

It has been pointed out that players can participate in multiple senior days so, even if she honored, doesn’t mean she is leaving.

They can but it usually happens if a player was considering leaving but decided to come back.
It would be odd to PLAN on having multiple senior days.
 
Put me down as someone who hopes she comes back. I feel so bad for Ice. Injuries have dogged her and kept her from fulfilling her potential. (On the court) Whether she stays or goes, I wish her all the very best and hope that she has a fulfilling and happy life. She is clearly a good person who seems to love everybody. This world needs more people like that.
 
So glad to hear that Blanca will be back for the game tomorrow night. She has been missed!

I am sure that Ice has been weighing her options and hopefully she stays one more year.
Whatever the future holds for Ice, I wish her nothing but the best success moving forward.

Is Ice an academic senior? Somehow I lost track of that.

Yes, but she's only used 2 years of her eligibility. Through injury waivers she could likely get 2 more years to play but it's questionable whether she'd want to stay in school that long.

Yes, both her and Yanna are seniors academically.

As is El Alfy since she enrolled early in 2023, so this semester would technically be her seventh and first of her senior year.

She committed as a sophomore in high school. I believe there is no way she thought her college career would be like it has been. I hope she stays.

I think it's just giving her options at the end of the season. I have no problem, recognizing her now even understanding that she may ultimately choose to stay.

Paige, Aubrey, Azzi and Dorka all did too.
 
Not surprised if players who have been beaten up physically (not to mention mentally) decide to retire. I thought for sure Ducharme was going to do so last year, though if she does desire to be a coach then made extra sense for her to stay.

Wow, to see Ice, Ayanna, Azzi, and Caroline all in the senior day ceremonies -- that will really drive home just how bad things can happen to good people. I love all four of them, both their personalities and their games. I hope they have enjoyed their time at UConn. This is Caroline's and Azzi's last year, I hope Ice and Yanna come back for another year.
