Besides the 26 points from Henderson, she, Beal and Cooke did an amazing job of guarding CW, Azzi and Paige. The knew exactly where the UCONN screens were coming from and how to get over them quickly. Boston and Saxton were alway in outstanding help position. This was really a master class by SC in individual and team defense and very much like UCONN used to play.

Geno and staff outcoached? The start of 2 half sunk UConn especially starting the 2nd half with the same 5 as started the game, too rigid sometimes.

I was referring to CTBbalfan 243's post #13 "If I’m not mistaken, UConn has won 11 National Championships. I think they will be ok.."

I tried to point out, not so eloquently, that this has as much relevance as the Yankees winning 27 World Series. It's the poster who seems to think their 11 Titles is enough, certainly not anyone associated with the team. If anything, it's more pressure trying to uphold a proud tradition. Some posters have added caveats that I agree with, but it still feels like short but quick guards have been an impediment to our winning number 12 in recent years. Just my opinion.

Yeah, I think you’re seeing things that aren’t there. @CTBballfan243’s point is, I believe simply that there is considerable expertise in Storrs Connecticut given their 11 championships and it is likely that they’ll figure out any transitory shortcomings. I don’t think anyone is satisfied with that number, especially those who actually have something to do with it.

sorry but the mission was suppose to be this year, remember "unfinished business" after the Arizona loss. No more catchphrases, show on the court end of story.

“Wait ‘til next year”………..

Never said you did. Many think she scored her points shooting great.

9-20 is ok but I wouldn’t call it great when most were short inside the arc poppers, but with SC dominating the boards 49-24, it was enough.

“ This is next year”...........

So, last year was really this year.

again you're just coping, SC was the best team all season end of story. Believe what fake fairy tale you want.

SC lost to a team that only had 8 available players and did not have their best player available due to Covid . SC also lost to a team that didn’t even make the NCAA tournament and lost to Drake in the NIT, but according to your biased opinion SC could have won if the game was on Saturday instead of Wednesday. Lol…..keep it coming

So you're saying, it's okay to simply rest on their laurels? How's that working out?

For clarification:

What's the meaning of the phrase 'Rest on your laurels'?​

To be satisfied with one's past success and to consider further effort unnecessary.

I don’t believe UConn is resting on their laurels at all. I just believe that it’s just SC time to be at the top of the WCBB mountain.
