Love for Kia Nurse in today's Globe & Mail

[emjay]

Apologies if this has already been posted. There's a great article about Kia Nurse and UConn in today's Globe & Mail, one of Canada's national newspapers. The print version's got a full-page colour photo on the front cover of the sports section. Pretty exciting to see, as the coverage of March Madness is sometimes a little scant up here, especially when it comes to the women's tournament (occasional articles about Nurse and Achonwa, the women's Olympic team, and that's pretty much it).

Just thought I'd share!

Best defender - "Oh Canada, we stand on guard for thee."

Very honest article about Kia and her role among UCONN's latest "superstars". A true team player.

In the article:
“He’ll never tell us how good we are – that never happens around here,” Nurse told The Globe and Mail.

I'll bet he eventually tells them that no team has exceeded expectations like this one did, win or lose.

Bob Joyce was so on target.

Kia is clutch. I am so glad she had an outstanding performance against Albany. Hopefully this game gave her great confidence in her ankle and her outside shot. I agree with Geno. I think Kia/Chong/Dangerfield will be the X factors that win the tourney for them.

First time I saw where the Toronto game was going to be. Thanks! Great article.
