UConn in the WNBA

But she is certainly a candidate for the All-Rookie team. Her teammate, 31 year old Julie Vanloo, should also make that team.

Stats don't lie either

Lou forces CC to Tap Out!!
Lucky nothing happened, phew!

Tina has 3-6=9 rebounds tonight in the first half so is #1 in rebounds, #1 in DBoards and #3 in OBoards with still a chance to move up to #2 this season, especially if they win since she'll get at least another game.

Career records are based on regular season only.

 

[Skeets]

This is true of virtually every "season" record in every sport. MLB went from 154 to 162 games. NFL went from 12 to 17 games. NBA went from 68 to 82 games. NHL went from 60 games in 1948 to the current 80 game schedule.

Absolutely correct. I was actually having fun busting the guy's chops because I'm a little tired of hearing about someone who shall go nameless on this forum.

How it started.........How it ends.
What a career!!

The pass it on to the next generation UConn hug

With 4.42 left in the 4th quarter, of the last regular season game, Nika did it. A steal and a basket!!

 

[GoUconn7961]

I was thrilled Nika finally scored last night with Geno, CD, Sue, Gabby and DT there. I'm sure I'm missing others. What a moment.

Love this angle.

Nika points off a steal and score. Couldn't have asked for anything better.

The godfather to every Alumni, I think and even more for DT

Svet and DT had the more relashtionships with the coach, I think

I get the idea that this is it for two reasons:

1. I don't think DT lets them run the 'last chance' campaign without her being sure it is over.

2. I don't think everyone shows up for the game without her telling them it is over.

What a ride!

Phenominal stat lines for these terrific players.

If this is in fact the last run for DT, what a career it's been!

Is it getting dusty in here?

Nika's overseas team, Besiktas, lost at home, to Basketball Landes, 84-70.
So they will have to go on the road next week, to France, and win by at least 15 points to move on in Euroleague or they will be playing in Euro Cup this season. No disgrace to play in Euro Cup,

I hope the league reconsiders the prioritization rule. This can’t be the last we see of Gabby in the league

 

[VAUConnFan]

It is still perplexing that Tiffany Hayes is not on The Wall.

Stephanie Dolson was the player who developed most at UConn; and quite quickly; out of necessity.

Let's face it, UConn has had a ton of talent with which to work.

I, obviously, fell asleep on Collier; had no inkling as to how good/great a ballplayer she was.

Gabby Williams was quite impressive in the Olympics final; another UConn alum who demonstrated an arsenal that escaped my previous attention.

Tina Charles! Praised her freshman year, derided her sophomore year, gained a ton of confidence her junior year, was absolutely awesome her senior year, and has not looked back.

Samuelson has found the right fit for her talents at Indiana.

Kiah Stokes, IMO, has had the most unexpected success at the next level. She is on a team that does not require her to be a scoring threat. Perfect fit.

 

[GirlBoo1020]

I hope the league reconsiders the prioritization rule. This can’t be the last we see of Gabby in the league

She's on a team this season where there season doesn't conflict with the WNBA season I believe so prioritization shouldn't be an issue. Don't remember where i read that but I believe she is playing with the Liberty's Fiebech? Someone might want to fact check me on this though.

Gabby Williams vs Las Vegas:
20 PTS
5 RBS
3 AST
1 STL
8-16 FG
3-3 FT

I’m hoping for a Stewie vs Pheesa final!

 

[Blue Huskie]

So great the see Pheesa tie with Stewie and Angel M. for most points in playoff game - 42.
2 out of 3 of those players UCONN alum!
