Message: [QUOTE="PhillyCoach, post: 5113185, member: 6136"] Sarah is in simple terms a "Player." It is rare when a player has the seamless combination of nature and nurture. If you look at every player on UConn's team--most if not all have the nurture. How many are coaches daughters? How many have Moms and Dads who played ball and taught their daughters well. I guess it would be most if not all. In addition, the training, exercising, and PRACTICE is off the charts. They have been nurtured well. Now who has the nature? Who has the instincts? Who has the continuous confidence? Paige and Sarah have different body types and physicality. But they have the "it" factor. Quiet confidence, not loud arrogance. And the confidence does not ebb and flow. It is ALWAYS there. Just like the defensive plays--a hand in a passing lane, a block. Just like a pretty pass, adjusted layup or winning shot. Sarah is special. It is very special when the nature and nurture comes together and creates an unusual player who really can--DO IT ALL! [/QUOTE]
