I didn't see this posted yet. The two most impressive items?

45.1: Let's count the ways UConn has destroyed some opponents: 64 (Charleston), 61 (Wake Forest), 42 (Marist), 70 (Colgate), 72 (Oakland) and 57 (Hartford). The result is a margin of victory almost 10 points greater than the program record (35.4 in 2001-02), the current NCAA Division I record.

29.1: Let's count the way UConn has already suffocated the field goal percentages of some opponents: 25.4 (Charleston), 21.8 (Wake Forest), 25.6 (Marist), 29.8 (Colgate) and 14.9 (Oakland). The result is a percentage almost one point below the program record (30.0 in 2009-10), also the current NCAA Division I record.

Wow.

42/9: If we've said it once, we've said it a trillion times: senior Kelly Faris, pound for pound, inch for inch, is the most fundamentally sound player in the Big East conference. This point is best reflected in her assist/turnover ratio, which leads the nation. Not only that, she is still shooting 61.4 percent from the field, 44.0 percent from the foul line.

This was the most astonishing thing.....until I realized he messed up and it was supposed to be the 3-pt line.
