I suspect I'm a late comer on this article, though I can's find it here now. There was a dawn Staley Philly Belles article the other day. this isn't it. If I'm late, just merge me in and don't shoot me. An article that lingers in details.
" Watson and Burke ate breakfast with UConn’s team. Huskies stars Kia Nurse and Katie Lou Samuelson sat with them and included them in conversation. Their families sat at another table with Auriemma and his staff. Everyone got a tour of the facility from a graduate assistant, and a tour of the coach’s office from Auriemma. They attended a shootaround in addition to a game.
“We got treated very well,” Burke said.
“Talking outside basketball,” Watson said when asked what she enjoyed about sitting with the team at breakfast.
There was no offer extended from UConn to either one, but the group left impressed.
“Because of their success, they can kind of pick and choose a little bit better,” Chris Burke said of UConn. “They can wait a little longer. They’ve earned that.”
