[QUOTE="ConnMotors, post: 5234575, member: 9800"]
I had just changed the channel when the injury took place. But had ESPN on on my phone so the news quickly came. Once again it saddens me that a player gets hurt during a game. Not just a player but a generational player. Even though this is something that makes my body cringe when a player has to be helped off of the floor. She is an awesome athlete and will be missed. But like others she will be back. Hopefully stronger and better than ever. Prayers to her and family.

However, as we UConn fans know quite well is that injuries can happen at any time. I have been a watcher, a fan, a season ticket holder, a media member and a supporter for countless years. UConn has had their share of injuries that took place prior to the season starting, during the season as well as during the tournament. Let me ask , but what would the number of championships be if not for those injuries?

Just a few names that I can recall quickly:

Nykesha Sales; Svetlana Abrosimova; Shea Ralph; Sue Bird; Nicole Wolff; Mel Thomas; Caroline Doty; Katie Lou Samuelson; Paige Bueckers; Dorka Juhasz, Aubrey Griffen and Azzi Fudd.
