Kibitzer Memorial Badass Award

[Woof 101]

TEAM here including the bench that was totally wild supporting those on the floor. There was a lot of Badass to go around today.
A BA tip of the cap to Geno for his time out when SC made back to back baskets and building momentum. I told the better half one more and I use a time out. Geno called it even sooner.
Dawn left all four time outs on the table, must of thought she could save them for next season?

Tonyc reminds me of Andy Dufresne from Shawshank Redemption. He always had "Hope" He made it!!

While everyone on the team was amazing and a BA...if i have to choose one it is Sarah Strong! i don't know that I've ever seen a freshmen perform like this in the biggest game of her young career! The scoring, the rebounds, the basketball iq, the composure under pressure, just amazing!!!

Paige - Azzi - Sarah.

The Big 3.

Yes, but I don’t think we should overlook the contribution from others players, in particular Kaitlyn for what she has done to make it easier for Paige to shine!

 

[Topdawg]

This one is to the whole team and to all the boneyarders who have kept us inspired and entertained all season!,

 

[uconnbill]

So happy for the entire team, but very happy for Paige and Azzi who have both been through so much and great redemption for both of them.

12 time National Champs is the most in all of basketball history men or women.

Congrats to UConn Women and winning convincedly

 

[Just.A.Fan]

I love the way Azzi has finally come to life this season, and she was fantastic! However, the BA in this game was Sarah Strong. Hands down the freshman should have received the MVP!

 

[AidanFan20]

Gotta go with Paige. Her shots weren't falling, but did that bother her? Nahh, she just went and did other things to help the team win, like defense, passing, rebounding, leadership, etc..

 

[Barkin Out]

I SAY the whole team IS THE BADASS. With special honors to the BIG 3. Fantastic game, The best part for me was the looks on Dawn's face through out the game. They were priceless. GO HUSKIES!!!!!! Now Uconn gets ready for NO13!!!!

Yeah, she thought she was going to have Dynasty served for Sunday dinner- but all she got was a triple helping of Badass!

 

[cgshuskie]

I'm so happy I don't know what to do. Azzi and Sarah should be the bad asses. But the whole team deserves notariety!!!!

 

[Scud49]

The team effort from everyone was great, simply fanatastic. But if I had to pick one with the sharpest dagger, it was Azzi today - as the T shirts said: "FUDD AROUND AND FIND OUT"...!!

 

[DEFCONN1]

Playing hard nosed D, driving to the basket with reckless abandon, diving for loose balls, rebounding, perfect at the free throw line, blocking 2 shots while generally getting a beat down by the Gamecock D and her last game. I will have to go with Paige as my badass of the game !

Tonyc reminds me of Andy Dufresne from Shawshank Redemption. He always had "Hope" He made it!!

@Tonyc for badass. His faith never wavered; he didn’t doubt for one second. Badass.

 

[Inthepaint]

Thank you

You earned it pal

 

[Dugway]

During the first half when the game was still a game, Fudd stealing the ball away and running it out for a layup. Not just once but twice! That’s just demoralizing to an opponent.

 

[cookie447]

The “whole” team, including coaches, practice players, managers, etc. As Paige said more than once: It takes a village!

 

[Kibitzer]

There is honestly an argument to be made for any of the big three, not to mention the myriad contributions by the rest of the team (KK, I'm looking at you). That said, my heart wants to give it to Paige. Seeing her get her flowers from Geno at the end brought tears to my eyes. You did it, girl. Kibitzer would be proud.

P.S. A shoutout to TonyC for keeping up the KBAs going these last several seasons. Go Huskies!

 

[Fossil]

Obviously, they all played well, but I think for this game, I’d go with Azzi for basically two plays. Both were steals from Fulwiley. You could see the body language and the wind go out of her sails after that. She usually is a catalyst for their offense, but not so much Sunday.
