Sarah named Big East Freshman of the week [3rd]

Phenomenal,,,she’s so impressive. If Wiki had a reference to “natural basketball player”- there would be Sarah’s picture. Her instincts are such that her game seems effortless. She does so many small things right, naturally, Diana fed off passion- on the other hand, Sarah is collected, seemingly diffident- a silent assassin.

My sense is she brings the trophy home– teams will have to focus of Paige and Azzi, but Sarah Strong will be the one who breaks their hearts

Good for SARAH. With many more coming. SARAH is the real deal and will make an outstanding name for herself at UCONN in her 4 years. UCONN's future is looking like they will prevail over the next 4 or 5 years and make GENO happy that he signed a contract extension for 5 more years, I know I'm happy he signed for 5 more years. GO HUSKIES!!!!

I believe the records are:

Maya 10

Maddy 10 (UConn was in the AAC)

Rebecca 7

Sarah 3 and counting (decent start tonight with 13/8/2/6/2)

Sarah is going to be a problem for every team they play. Her hands are amazing and she has a complete game to go with them. I know Paige is the odds on favorite but don't be surprised if Sarah sneaks into the MVP conversation in the league.

The Big THREEE!!

What I would love is for her to take and hit at a high efficiency of 3's. I believe that's when UCoNN wil peak and she will make UCONN a massive beast. She hit's her 3's, I'm trying to imagine how an opposing team can stop UCONN other than "hope they miss."

She's just a wonderful player and the next great one to lead the team into the future. You have to watch her closely to see all the little things she does to help her team. A truly talented and intelligent nugget.

This is what strikes me about Sarah, too. And they make a big difference on defense as well as offense. She gets lots of steals with those hands and causes even more turnovers. The secret is probably out now, or will be soon.

Is there a limit to how many times a player can win this? I have a feeling that Ms. Strong has this booked through the end of March......

Sarah, with arms like a chameleon's tongue. The ball is within 5 feet and that arm lashes out and her sticky hands secure the ball. Yep, those hands seem to have the same basic function as a chameleon's tongue, sticky and brings back whatever. In the lizard's case it's dinner, in Sarah's case it's the ball. Both get what they are after, both are fun to watch.
