The most bitter of seasons. The most painful of seasons. The most heartbreaking of seasons. And for the courageous Dorka to lose to the team from which she transferred has to be a most humiliating of endings.
Yet this could be considered one of Coach Geno's greatest coaching fetes. He began the season by losing to injury the two best guards in the nation, and what could have been one of the finest freshman front court players in the America. And that was just the beginning of the injuries and tribulations. Yet Coach Geno managed this team not just to another 30-win season, but to three blow-out wins and the title of Big East Champion, and to Connecticut's 29th straight place in the Sweet Sixteen.
It simply wasn't in the stars this year. But these players never lacked for courage, for heart, for tenacity. They fought magnificently.
They made us proud.
