Message: [QUOTE="HuskyNan, post: 4464416, member: 4"] [HEADING=2]Turnovers turn the tide[/HEADING] [I]Connecticut finished with 22 turnovers; Maryland had just five. That was the biggest difference — although the Terps also went 12 for 30 from behind the arc while Connecticut finished 3 for 10. Auriemma pointed to Maryland’s pressure and some of his players holding new roles that they’re not yet accustomed to. “They’re having to be more playmakers than finishers and scorers,” he said. “It’s uncomfortable for them, and it’s hard to sustain. [Turnovers] come in bunches a lot of times, and some are self-inflicted. They’re not caused by anything other than bad decisions that we make. ... So it’s a little bit of a struggle when you’re in that situation. You can keep it together for a long time, but it’s asking a lot to keep it together for an entire 40 minutes.”[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2022/12/11/maryland-women-upset-uconn/?isMobile=1[/URL] [I]“I couldn’t be prouder of my team and how we represented ourselves,” Auriemma said. “It was a gutsy, amazing performance.”[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://dailycampus.com/2022/12/12/womens-basketball-shorthanded-no-6-huskies-lose-to-no-20-terrapins-in-college-park/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
