Trip to West Point opens eyes of Husky players
"Players say the trip put into perspective the responsibilities that they face on a daily basis, not just from Auriemma but life in general. It served as something of a reality check."

" Katie Lou Samuelson said. “It puts into perspective how you feel like you’re sacrificing and you’re working hard every day, but they’re putting their lives on the line. … You really have to count on your teammate out there. If you’re not really holding up your end of the bargain, you’re going to get killed. "

"All of a sudden, being a college basketball player didn’t seem all that difficult. "

That awe-inspiring view and the Plebe/Upper Classmen life was what some on the BY actually lived. Geno/Christine and Uconn Management should all be cheered for showing these young women in this visit and years back to Bethesda USNH to see the wounded Marines and Navy Explosive experts who paid a price. Geno showed these ladies Freedom isn't Free. My heart almost burst with pride when this team visited those wounded. No fanfare just doing what was right. I've been there done that and it wasn't easy.
