Kibitzer Memorial Badass Award

[Tonyc]

Blanca

 

[Molisanos]

KK Arnold, because say Blanca is too easy

 

[pghhuskydoc]

KK gets my vote. Hit the floor often and hard and played outstanding defense.

 

[oldude]

KK was all over the court, literally and figuratively, hawking the ball on defense. That was just one BADASS EFFORT!!!

 

[Zarathustra]

Honorable Mention: Ayanna Patterson (Indiana Native):
5 points, 2 for 3 shooting, TWO offensive Rebounds, TWO
Defensive REBOUNDS, one assist, one foul, ONE BLOCK!
A "SURREAL" GAME, YANNA!!

 

[DEFCONN1]

K9 for fearlessly throwing her body around. Fingers crossed

 

[DEpup]

KK!

 

[Kaizen]

Blanca

 

[Blakeon18]

I got a glimpse of K9 in the post-game handshakes....seemed to be OK.

Mention of Ayanna....nice minutes/some nice play...and...some nice smiles...love it.

 

[BRS24]

K9

 

[dtbtbtb]

I'll go with Blanca! the intensity of the game totally changed when she entered the game and UConn went on a huge run.

 

[huskeynut]

KK and K9.

 

[Inthepaint]

K9

 

[Cornell Lt]

Ayanna - her best performance in a UConn uniform (by far)

 

[Puppy Love]

Ayanna, without a doubt.

In 1946, Connecticut got Minute Rice. In 2025, Connecticut got Minute Vice.

She enters the game in Q1 at 5:16. One minute later (4:12), she hits a 3. One minute later (3:17), she steals the ball for a driving layup. One minute later (2:27), she repeats her thievery and layup.

The vice is already hinted at. She vandalizes the Bulldogs with nonstop thievery, larceny, burglary, looting, piracy and other heists. On top of that, she commits break-ins, player imprisonments, malicious prosecutions, and all sorts of public mischief and mayhem.

The Viceroy of Minute Vice . . .

The Viscountess of Minute Vice . . .

Bad girl . . .

Bad*ss . . .

Blanca!

 

[Topdawg]

I will go with Blanca for this game.

 

[Bone Dog]

Kayleigh. No question. She threw herself into the action. Go, K9!!!

 

[darkstar1]

Kayleigh. She took several hits and got right back in it. When she and Biance entered, the game changed.

 

[LuvBball]

The bench.

 

[Javafan]

Sarah ! How can anyone made a half catch and turnaround bounce pass for assist?!

 

[Skeets]

No one had a bad game. The usual suspects had their usual game, which is to say maybe the best in the nation. Blanca is the next UConn superstar.

The player I am most happy about and gets my BA award is Yanna. If UConn can get her completely spooled up, between her and Blanca and the rest of the bench, wow. Just wow.

 

[jaundicedeye]

Sarah. The smoothest Badass ever. Never rushed, never frenetic, she is easy to overlook with the enthusiastic efforts of the subs, whose efforts are exciting.

 

[Vancat]

Today I vote K9. Hope she's OK!

 

[Ct Dog]

Blanca

100% — She should be starting IMO
