Message: [QUOTE="JellyBean, post: 4928556, member: 1997"] Hats off to Jackson State. Pretty scrappy team and well coached. They played hard for 40 minutes. With that being said, I am so proud of our beloved UConn Huskies!! Each player stepped up in multiple ways. Either on the scoring end, defensive end, rebounding, and passing. Each player did something positive to help the team get the win. [B]Ashlynn[/B]: Dealt with the bully ball by dishing out some physical play of her own. Great game. [B]Aaliyah:[/B] Took quite a few whacks to the face (some called and some were not called) and she played through it all. [B]KK:[/B] Such a wonderful floor general. Pushes the pace and knows when and where to take the action on offense. Defensive side, she is such a pest! She plays with so much confidence, which only has gotten better as the season progressed. Great game. [B]Paige:[/B] What an incredible player. I am glad that we have her on the team. Her passing, that one pass to Ashlynn, was Magic Johnson like! Just a small lane and Paige and Ashlynn connected. Just a beautiful exchange. [B]Nika: [/B]Like KK, Nika knows when and where to take the action. She was dropping dimes like only Nika can. Her defense, like KK, was disruptive. Great game, Nika!! [B]Ice: [/B]She played well. She had some solid passes that led to some scoring. Her rebounding and defensive play was very helpful to the team. She did well out there. [B]Q: [/B]Her time will come but when she is on the court, it is magical. Her ability to catch and shoot is electric! I hope that she remains patient and embrace what the coaching staff is trying to teach her and embrace her role. Her time will come. [B]Ines: [/B]What a team player! She came in and played hard. [/QUOTE]
