Summary article from Creighton point of view. A little preview of coaches thoughts on the upcoming game against UConn on Thursday
journalstar.com
The Jays next play on Thursday at women’s basketball power UConn, which is back in the Big East this season.
“(UConn is) very good, but they’re younger,” Flanery said. “The time we played them six or seven years ago they actually had a kid who came off the bench who was the runner-up for the WNBA rookie of the year that following year (Kiah Stokes I think) . I remember watching that team before we played them and said, ‘I don’t think we can match up at any position.’ I didn’t tell our team that. But I think this (UConn) team is a little more human, because they’re younger. And maybe we’ve caught up a little bit, too, hopefully.
