What coaches consistently return to isn’t just production – it’s control. Strong dictates games without demanding them. She scores at all three levels, quarterbacks the offense and rarely looks rushed doing any of it.​

​

At this point in her career, the conversation around Sarah Strong isn’t about projection or potential. It’s about what she’s doing right now and how consistently she’s doing it.​

Sarah Strong , Future NPOY , Soon to be 2 time AA and back bone of Uconn Basketball is a once in generation Phenom that flashed on to Women's basketball with high praise and expectation, only to surpass those expectation.For 1 and a 1/2 seasons I have been dazzled by her play, the absolute ease she scores from 3 different positions.I am already happy that I can watch her for 2 and 1/2 years more and A remote possibility of a 4- peat ALA Breanna Stewart. With her supporting team members , which is ALL of them, I feel it could happen. This years team is on a mission to prove " there can be only one ". GO SARAH!!!!!! GO HUSKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When she gets the ball on the blocks, guarded one-on-one, she can't be stopped. Add in the mid-range and the 3 pointers, I haven't seen anyone else in D1 like that. Oh, how about her defense?

One thing she has in common with Blanca is great hands on defense for a 6'2" player who also has power. Her timing on steals is just so intuitive you are almost laughing it's so good.
