It would be nice if the announcers told us who 32 is.

Batouly Camara

OK. Nice win. Nobody's hurt. Go pass your finals ladies and then lets get ready to rock & roll again in 10 days

[Sonny44]

Great game, but ugliest last four minutes I can remember.

 

[BigBird]

Fun game to watch! Next up: Okie-la-homa on the 19th.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Another game with a great effort and strong 25-35 minutes, but a very sloppy finish. It leaves us less than thrilled. I think Geno is also less than thrilled.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Is Doug playing his starters against the freshmen?

They all start.

Batouly Camara

Give her time I think she will be good ...

 

[nwhoopfan]

I can see why Geno is only going 7 deep until garbage time. So much for improved depth this year maybe.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

DePaul on a 13-0 Run, since starters wen to the bench. DePaul ends game on a 13-2 Run.

Try 18-2

Same as every year.

 

[Kaizen]

Depaul should be a top 10 team next year ...

 

[nwhoopfan]

Same as every year.

Doesn't stop the off season message board chatter about improved depth though.

Last 5 minutes

UConn 4
DePaul 18

5 turnovers

But We lost only 1 pt at 4Q thanks to the starters ...LOL

 

[Carnac]

It was nice to finally see Batouly Camara get in a game.

 

[MilfordHusky]

LaChina is 6'5" and towered over Geno in the post-game interview, but Lou looked to be the same height as LaChina.

 

[MilfordHusky]

It was really good to see her on the floor!

 

[Centerstream]

BatCam didn't appear to have that deer in the headlights look about her. Good sign!

 

[Wbbfan1]

Noticed it after I posted and corrected my post.

So Disappointing because UConn had three players on the court that were higher rated coming out of HS, then any of the DePaul players on the court. Obviously the DePaul players had more actual game experience.

Try 18-2

I never understand how our top 5 to 7 players are better than everyone else's, but our bench can't beat anybody's bench. Don't they go to the same practice as the starters? Are they paying attention? I just want them to preserve the lead, and not give away 10 to 20 points of the lead in the last few minutes. Yuck!

 

[MilfordHusky]

Crystal was very efficient tonight: 18 points on 7 shots and 9 assists to only 2 turnovers.

 

[hugefan]

So nice to see Batouly out there. Way to go girl, getting back from her injury.

Gabby so close to a triple double. Kudos.

 

[EasyEd]

I thought Kyla look like she knew what she was doing on the floor. I hope she can get some more minutes at times when it matters more. I know Geno can win with 6 or 7, but it would be nice to have a dependable 8th player.

Lexi and Mikayala are in Storrs supposedly studying for the finals.
Willy? Or nilly? (British definitions only)

DePaul doesn't have a bench in the conventional sense. They have only 10 players who all play throughout the game, hence the mismatch at the end of the game
