Next coach?
Tina came to UConn with a gimpy shoulder. That play may have aggravated it, thoughTina had a nice freshman campaign, but she had trouble against Sylvia in the tourney. In fact, when Sylvia blocked one of Tina's shots, I think that's when Tina hurt her shoulder and needed surgery.
The following year, we lost to Stanford and Jayne Appel. Geno said that "We have no post presence."
The following 2 years were very different. Starting in the middle of her junior season, Tina found another gear. She dominated Louisville in the championship game.
In her senior season, Tina won the majority of the NPOY awards, beating out her roommate, Maya Moore. Anyone who tops Maya Moore is a cut above.
