Kibitzer Memorial Badass Award

Nika

 

[Centerstream]

Nika
Caroline HM

 

[ochoopsfan]

Deberry--only player with no turnovers for UConn

 

[fomalhaut]

Can't believe they picked Edwards as player of the game on the telecast. She had a solid game, but Muhl put the game away early, and went on to her first double-double.

 

[luminosity]

Nika for sure. Double double and shut down Park-Lane

 

[oldude]

Nika and Aaliyah both came up BIG. But I'm going with Nika for her 1st career double-double along with an excellent defensive effort against Park-Lane.

 

[Bigboote]

I'm with Centerstream. Nika was dared repeatedly to shoot and she did, successfully. Nika (and Aubrey) made Park-Lane's life difficult.

Caroline took a huge step forward. She sank a couple of threes and her shots looked good coming out of her hand even when they missed. Plus she made some of those cuts that thrill us all and finished them.

 

[Shorty Dee]

My badass award goes to Aaliyah, Coach C.D. and Nika. Aaliyah had another solid game, and she continues to play in beast mode. Coach C.D. with her fierce record 15-0.....how many Head Associate Coaches can say that?! Nika had an amazing game with a double-double in scoring and assist. Nika also shut down Lauren Park-Lane....what a game by her!!!!

 

[huskeynut]

Nika!!!!!!!

 

[Millenial23]

Aaliyah!

 

[Kaizen]

Nika ~~~

 

[Bama fan]

Nika the Gnat. Croatian tuff, UConn smart, team leader!

 

[CL82]

I’m going to buck trend and go with Aubrey Griffin. That was one hell of a fall, especially for a kid who had back surgery last year. To shake it off and keep playing? Badass.

My honorable mention goes to Caroline Ducharme. She’s been struggling with coming back from injuries all season long. In today’s game she put that behind her and played aggressively.

 

[DefenseBB]

To me, while at the game, Dorka was a stat line stuffer who was all Over the floor affecting the game with picks, screens and boxing out to got with her own double-double of 10 pts, 11 reb, 2 blocks, 2 steals, 4 assists, only 1 turnover and ZERO fouls in 27 min of play time.

 

[Skeets]

NIKA! Did an excellent job on Park-Lane. A chunk of Park-Lane's scores occurred when Nika wasn't on the floor or got switched off with someone else guarding Park-Lane. HM is about a 4 way tie.

Let's not overlook that CD (the original) is now the most winningest coach in WCBB history (min 15 games).

 

[RockyMTblue2]

I miss the old wise guy Nika. But, she absolutely keeps her general's uniform pressed and she has this piercing, almost predatory gaze when business is at hand.

 

[MilfordHusky]

The Croatian Sensation!!

 

[Topdawg]

I go with Aaliyah and Nika. Both had stellar contributions.

 

[AmeriConn]

Nika!!

 

[Majic Hands]

Nika.

 

[cancontent]

Maybe it's me, but SNY's choice usually seems to be the player with the highest point total.

While I'm known for my Aaliyah bias, Nika and Dorka's double doubles were both deserving of the recognition.

 

[PAHuskeyFan]

Gotta go with Nika in this one. Double Double. And, maybe most importantly, by her actions she told Seton Hall and Coach Bozella... You want to play off of me and jam the lane to keep Aaliyah and Dorka from beating you... Well, I'll just show you how bad that idea is... and she proceeded to sink multiple 3s and make double digit assists. Great Game.

I agree with Carline as HM!

 

[Zarathustra]

So many to choose from! I 'll go for a team award! Even Ines with
no points was coming back from a sprain. Ines had four assists in
10 minutes. If my math is correct, she could have 16 assists and
break NIKA'S record (a little humor, but she did very well). Did
you also note the Yanna was two for two from the free throw
line and now has a Free throw percentage for the year of 83+ percent. GO TEAM!
