The Kibitzer Memorial Badass Award

[sdhoops]

If the award is to a true bad ass then the obvious choice is Azzi Fudd..UConn was hurtin' and then she just went off. Come on now, let's not get into a Annie Strothers and Barb Turner sweetheart contest...

Yesss! The Silent Assassin strikes again!! Who else.. Azzi and CW as HM

 

[Shorty Dee]

My badass award goes to Caroline "the silent assassin." Honable mentioned goes to Azzi, Christyn and Dorka. Caroline and Azzi are very special players. Welcome back Azzi!! I love this Christyn taking it to the basket with authority!! Dorka was a rebounding machine.

 

[Carnac]

Caroline!!! One of these games we will actually get her the ball when she’s open, which is quite a bit! Welcome, Azzi! You were big tonight.

We don’t win this game without Azzi’s play.

 

[darkstar1]

Caroline for sure. But HM to Dorka. Would love to see a +/- in the box score. Dorka was out most of the second 1/2. Even with a 4 inch advantage, Liv no match inside for the just tough always hustling Morrow. Everyone contributed, but Dorka’s value today must be recognized.

Caroline Ducharme!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE definition by The Man himself

Get ready for our Boneyard Badass Awards.

The season is almost upon us, so get ready to identify our individual Badass Huskies from game to game. A little refresher course for old 'Yarders and orientation for our newbies. 1. A BY Badass Award is never based on dirty play, poor sportsmanship (including flopping), selfish play and other...

Yes and it's telling that Geno chose Caroline to take the final shot and the freshmen stepped up mightily....Now that Azzi is back, and with Caroline, I hope teams keep packing the lane and they'll be hearing air raid horns...

 

[CL82]

4. What really counts is tenacity, delivery in the clutch and, most of all, play that breaks the opponent's spirit -- causing dagger-in-the-heart, shoulders slumping effect.

Still say Caroline.

 

[ochoopsfan]

I select Steph Dolson for coming out on a very cold night to watch the old team play.

 

[DaBball]

I’ll go with Caroline, though Azzi’s shotmaking abilities being on full display in the second half really changed the game as well.

 

[MSGRET]

Not sure of the rules. If it’s BadAss of the game….Morrow in a runaway. UCONN CD Dorka

Morrow would have fouled out in the first half if the refs treated her the same as Liv and Dorka. She got away with at least two elbows to the head one on the Charme, she had to leave the game and another on Dorka. She also shoved a UConn player at least 3 times while getting in position for a rebound. The time that they called Liv for a foul where Morrow fell was bogus. Morrow was pushing Liv out of the way with her body and fell to the ground when Liv stepped away. This was one of the worse called games I've seen this year and those refs should be reprimanded by the league for their poor officiating. The KM BadAss Award goes to the Charme

 

[The CDR-Ret]

AZZI and CW coming off the Disabled List to play in late season form, Dorka as a beast on the boards, and Caroline finishing DePaul off in the last minute, and the last second.

I agree--I give Morrow her due, but man, as you pointed out, the reffing was so very one-sided: Liv couldn't breathe on Morrow, but Morrow was undercutting, throwing elbows, pushing and shoving and got no fouls. Poorly officiated game--even the announcers were picking up on the call disparity...

 

[NU2BY]

Even in a small German village they root for Caroline Ducharme.

 

[blkkirk]

It could go to anyone. The team. I would like to give a special shout out to Dorka. Great rebounding and she really impressed me on defense tonight. Very physical and very strong. Holding her ground. Toughness I have not seen.

First time in a long time where everyone shot 50 percent or better. Everyone was needed and came through.

I agree completely, but truth in advertising, the announcers are UConn announcers who tend to bleed blue a little....

 

[Stosh855]

Caroline!!!!!! She will be deadly when she shoots 3s at 43% or better.

 

[AmeriConn]

“Da Charm”

 

[CB360]

Bad Ass to the TEAM . TRUE GRIT!
but for the return from the land of illness: special
mention to Christyn Williams and Azzi Fudd.
But truly a third and fourth quarter to remember
Let watch the highlight tape!!! GO TEAM!

Completely Agree! Gutsiest game played by this team not just this year but, in a few!

 

[meyers7]

Yep no more Caroline Ducharme, it's now CFD.

 

[meyers7]

That's a "may" not a "shall". She's eligible.

 

[CL82]

I read that as being that the high scorer alone is not necessarily the winner, but can be if they meet other criteria such as making the score that deflates the the opponent.
