Message: [QUOTE="BlueSkyGLW, post: 4154786, member: 11281"] Through this early season travails for the UConn WBB team, there is something good developing: 1) Before the injured return, the seniors will realize they need to produce to ensure a path to the 2nd season: the tournament.....and they will deliver. 2) Dorka will continue her acclimatization and get stronger 3) Aaliyah will get over her doldrums and play like she did to be selected in the Canadian National Team.....despite the difference in position there and at UConn 4) Caroline continues her growth and Amari, too. 5) The return of Nika and Azzi will make the team more whole and they develop a chemistry (along with Caroline) similar to how Nika and Paige grew their freshman year; the team as a whole will function better when it plays the rest of their non-conference games. 6) When Paige returns, she will be reintegrating to a team which shall have grown in play and confidence in themselves - something not possible with her because Geno seldom, if ever, takes her out. It will be a team with far greater confidence than he last several games. 7) Paige then raises the team to a higher level of play, with everyone having grown in confidence and in the style of play the coach wants them to embrace, showing flexibility in multiple positions....and growth in defense will be much in display, with Nika and Aaliyah showing growth in their defensive contributions from freshman year, to go with the improvement of the rest of the team, including the return of Aubrey. Barring new injuries, the team develops into a solid tournament team that gets back into the Final Four, this time with greater resolve derived from having to rise above the misfortunes visited upon them this early on...... ...and then rise to the Championship game to win their first of more NCs to come from this roster. So it has been conceived, so it shall be said, and so it shall be done! The 12th Cometh! [/QUOTE]
