Never saw him play basketball, Oldude. I'll bow to you on that one.Great goalie, but not much of a midrange jumper....![]()
Here's a twist, UConn does not win if it wasn't for Aaliyah's stellar play in the first half with 14 points.
When Czinano gets the ball in the low blocks it's either a basket, a trip to the foul line or both. Aaliyah really battled all game to keep Czinano from catching the ball in the low blocks. Worth mentioning that in her limited PT, Ayanna also battled Czinano effectively in the low blocks.And superb D on Czinano, likely the best the very talented Iowa post has encountered.
It’s UNANIMOUS!Aaliyah Edwards and it's not close. First time a majority winner.
Clearly Aaliyah with Caroline as runner up!Time to do away with this award. Every game is a crapshoot. Edwards was a beast, four assists from a triple double. No question she was a monster today. But, Nika was two assists away from the school record, which of course is her own, and her defense against Clark was spectacular. Azzi was Azzi when the team needed points and lifted the team when they most needed it. Without her third quarter burst, the Huskies don’t win this one. You can’t underscore how important Caroline’s contributions were. Early on, Griffin was playing great. I hate the copout answer of, “team award,” but today is a prime example of this being a team award. So my answer is Nika. No wait, Aaliyah. No, Fudd. Caroline. Aubrey. I see many posters saying it has to be Aaliyah, but I don’t think it’s that cut and dry. One of the issues is, we’re just used to 25 point games from Azzi, and 10 assist games from Nika. Too many players contributed today.
Super heroes never take off the mask!Maybe Aaliyah never takes off her mask.
Also our ALL CANADIAN player of the game!All American Aaliyah Edwards
There will always be games when our team leaders do not have their mojo working to begin the game. That was the case today. While Azzi and Lou when trying to find their car keys, Aubrey, Aaliyah and Caroline were keeping us in the game. Sometimes that's all Geno needs from a player is to give what they can when we need it. Sometimes what they give may not be for the entire game, but for only a quarter or two. But it's what is needed AT THAT TIME.Caroline, a solid runner up! It was the “old” Ducharme back in the fold. Great contribution!
Wonderful concept. Iron Man is so fitting for this game. Way to go. Thanks for the chuckle. GO HUSKIES!!!
That’s a Mandalorian helmetWonderful concept. Iron Man is so fitting for this game. Way to go. Thanks for the chuckle. GO HUSKIES!!!
There's no resemblance between Iron Man's helmet and the Mandalorian helmet. None at all.
