NACADA: National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics? North American Cane Driers Ass'n? No disrespect, but the Acronym Society can wear a little thin at times. Anybody know?
I remember Paige's team making their way into an opponent's facility -this huge entryhall - and it's packed with people waiting for Paige and one of her teammates looks at the camera and says something like "she gets this everywhere ... crazy man" and laughs. So before she gets to the locker room she has to do the autograph photo bit with maybe 200 people then rinse repeat after the game. All with a smile.I have commented on an aspect of Paige’s generosity before. After just about every game, home or away, win or lose, you can find a throng of young girls and some boys, with their parents, in one corner of the arena, waiting excitedly as Paige signs one autograph after another, or takes selfies with her young fans. Most of these fans are wearing a #5 UConn jersey
This practice started for Paige back in HS. She usually continues to sign autographs or take selfies until a UConn staffer lets her know that the bus is leaving and it’s time to go.![]()
