From an Adamec article not on Nan's play list today:

"The University of Connecticut women's basketball team's junior All-American's aggressive approach has developed since she first arrived here but she has taken her attack mode to another level in the last month even as she deals with an injured lent ankle. It's one of the reasons that the buzz around her national Player of the Year candidacy continues to grow.

Samuelson's aggressiveness was rewarded Sunday as she completed a trio of the old-fashioned three-point plays to go along with four of her specialty, the 3-point shot. Her 27 points paced six players in double figures as No. 1 UConn routed Temple 106-45 in American Athletic Conference action before 13,110 at XL Center.

"Lou's not afraid of contact," UConn All-American Gabby Williams said. "She's been reading the defense really well and anticipating, and that's what makes her so dangerous from all areas of the court.

"You have to pick your poison. She has worked so hard on being more than just a spot-up shooter. I think she knew she had that potential when she came here, and I'm glad she is kind of in her zone now."
                                                                                   ****************************
"With Lou's game you always see growth and her passing game this year has been absolutely incredible," UConn guard Kia Nurse said.

"My shot feels good," Samuelson added. "In practice I feel like I have been consistently doing things that I'm translating into games. I feel like I've been taking good shots and not forcing things. I've been playing and taking the shots from where they come from. I'm not too focused on scoring, but it seems like it comes more when I'm trying to just be all over the court and not looking to score."
