Message: [QUOTE="RockyMTblue2, post: 2540731, member: 250"] Oh [USER=6118]@BroadwayVa[/USER] it's love fest time for our gal Kia. "Her value in the march toward March is immeasurable, as is the value of fellow senior Gabby Williams. They are the adults in the room." "Nurse leads the nation in 3-point shooting percentage, 50 on the dot, having made 47 of 94 attempts. Last season as a junior, Nurse, of Hamilton, Ontario, made 73 of 158 3-pointers (46.2 percent). If she takes a pass in the corner and has just a moment to breathe and set, forget it, she doesn't miss that shot. Just like she doesn't miss an assignment, or the importance of finding ways to pull and push a team in search of perfection." "Every coach wishes every player would be so predictable in these ways. Nurse has grown into one of the best leaders in UConn history, beloved in Canada for her basketball accomplishments (a spot on the 2016 Olympic team among them) and now in Storrs for her performances in 128 games (125 starts). She has 224 career 3-pointers, tied with Mel Thomas for ninth all-time at UConn." PS. " Samuelson will be a game-time decision."
