Husky Quotes on Stewie's Story

[RockyMTblue2]

Auriemma, former teammates rally behind Stewart

Katie Lou:

"It was definitely emotional for me, especially being so close to her my freshman year," Samuelson said. "Stewie took me under her wing. She was that support system that I needed when I got here. So having to read that hit hard and hit deep."

UConn, especially the WBB team, truly is a family.

The sophomores, juniors, and recently graduated seniors all looked up to Stewie. They still do.

On the basketball side of things, if Meg hits a slump or tires of Geno yelling at her, Lou will take her out for coffee, just as Stewie did 2 years earlier with Lou. By the end of her freshman season, I thought Lou was a top-20 player. By the end of last season, she was a top-5 player. Stewie already is on the short list of the best players in the world. Meg has the ability to follow Lou and Stewie.

It doesn't surprise me at all after following the UCONN WBB program since 1991 that quality human beings come out of the program no matter whether they go pro BB or out in the business world!

It doesn't surprise me at all after following the UCONN WBB program since 1991 that quality human beings come out of the program no matter whether they go pro BB or out in the business world!

This all stems back to Coach Auriemma's philosophy of recruiting good kids above all else. Some may wonder why UConn is not recruiting this player, or that player, and the reason is because of who they are off the court, and not on it.
