Just as we assume Meryl Streep never has trouble getting in character, we tend to think Connecticut's women's basketball team doesn't really have to "grind" in the sports sense of the word. You know, the extra effort you have to put into doing something when you don't have your best stuff, when things seem clunky and off-kilter.
There are so many times the Huskies make precision on court seem automatic, you can be surprised when that doesn't happen. A far bigger surprise, though, would be if they didn't adjust accordingly to being less than their spectacular selves.
"We can grind it out," UConn guard Moriah Jefferson said after the defending national champs' 70-51 victory over BYU on Saturday in the Lincoln Regional semifinals. "The thing people don't see is practice. Because there, every day is a struggle. We have to grind and grind."
