Megan Walker's last wish for HS Career

Connecticut Huskies recruit and No. 1 prospect Megan Walker prepares for her final high school game at Monacan


Good read. Looking forward to having this class on campus to keep those titles coming!

She's excited for the trip to Italy. Been quite a while since the Huskies were abroad (allowed every 4 years??). I'm hoping some enterprising TV company would like to follow them on that trip. Yes, the spoiled never get unspoiled.

With respect to the Italy trip, I was under the impression that Freshmen weren't allowed
to go on such trips. Have the rules changed? Or is she going to enroll early?

All the freshmen enroll early at UConn so they can take summer school courses and participate in off-season conditioning. The trip to Italy is one of the perks.

The article indicates that Megan will be heading to UConn to enroll on May 5 and returning to Monacan for graduation in June.

They must be allowed, because I recently read an article about Destiny Slocum that talked about her going with the Maryland team on its Europe trip.

Walker, who was Monacan's homecoming queen, will attend her prom in April and then enroll at Connecticut on May 5. She will fly back home to attend her graduation on June 8.

Dear Megan,

Your summer assignment will be to watch HBO's UConn: The March To Madness and take notes. Finals will be March 2018.

The 2011 trip to Italy included Dolson, KML and Banks, incoming frosh, as you can see in this photo I took.

I assume they have to be enrolled in school, but it has been standard to enroll for the summer session for years.

I hope Meg gets her wish. All the best to her and her teammates on Friday. Three-peat!

I do not believe Dolson was a freshman the same time as KML and Banks.

Perhaps the Athletic Department will arrange charter flights and tours for alums and other fans? A great fundraiser....

Correct. Stef came in with Bria, Samarie, Lauren, and Michaela. KML, Brianna, and Kiah came in the following year.

I remember a remark from Geno indicating an unappreciative attitude by team members to a meal at an Italian restaurant on a previous trip. He described how hard the chef
worked to please the team. I don't know what part of the pig they were being served. They should just do like I did as a kid. If I didn't like something on my plate, I tossed it under the table.

So her wish came true.
