How life works..

My two favorite players are graduating. They will be remembered for winning two championships. No small feat. Maya won just two as well. But this is how life works. Kia makes a miraculous play to tie the game, then makes a strong defensive play to turn the ball over and give UCONN a chance to win in regulation. Gabby is set up perfectly for the winning shot. If that shot goes in and UCONN goes on to win a championship, that sequence of plays becomes part of  UCONN lore and  BYer's still clamor to hang a banner for Kia. Many will probably look up her stats and see she had a subpar game on offense and perhaps that's all they'll remember. And Gabby? Failed to block William's shot last year and missed the potential winning shot this year. This hardly defines their UCONN careers. Two fine women. Two exceptional basketball players. For the most part the BY has moved on and these two will soon do so as well. I'll miss them both. Don't kid yourself. Their shoes will not be easily filled next year, I wish them both much luck in the WNBA, and a silver medal for Kia in the next Olympics.
