And she's just the latest in a long line of former Huskies in the coaching world. That's not an accident.

"There's definitely a love for the game," she said. "Coming out of UConn, they tend to breed winners and smart basketball players. And so, we're taught to play the game. The game is same everywhere. At this point for me, it's just kind of relating that and things that I've learned over the years."

Schumacher-Raimon said she has learned from many coaches, whether it's Paul Westhead and Bill Laimbeer in the WNBA or some of the coaches she played for overseas.

"But obviously Geno [Auriemma] has had a huge impact on just my theories as far as coaching goes and things that I really appreciated that he did for our team and over the years just watching them play," Schumacher-Raimon said. "So I would say he has a great influence on me."
