Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 4163946, member: 5798"] After UConn’s eight-point win over Creighton last Sunday, coach Geno Auriemma challenged his seniors, telling them the team needed more for them, especially with Paige Bueckers sidelined until February with a knee injury. In the two games since, including Saturday’s Big East contest versus Xavier, the Huskies’ seniors have done just that. With Williams and Nelson-Ododa on the rise and Evina Westbrook bringing an offensive spark off the bench, the Huskies look closer to formulating a sans-Bueckers identity: strong defense and an offense led by not just Ducharme, but the seniors as well.
