Was this a Caroline Doty moment????

[bob15]

Maybe somebody here can help with the player and game.......

Which game was it that a uconn player adjusted her hair and hair band, got the ball and hit a 3 pointer all in the matter of a few seconds? I'm thinking it was Caroline Doty, but cannot confirm and I cannot remeber what game, though I was thinking it was a national televised one (ESPN).

How good is the Boneyard's memory lane?

Go on you tube type in Megan Gardler hair fix shot..

 

[bob15]

Damn that was fast!!!!

In case anyone wants to know the game, it was against West Virginia, Big East final on 3-9-10. Happened at 4:49 of the 2nd half.

I understand your confusion -- all those Philadelphia blondes look the same to me.

I tried and it does not seem to show up in the search but this video of Megan highlights against Villanova may be of independent interest

Click I the video I posted, the hair fixing and shot are in about 15 second from where the video starts.

See video below. Go to the 1:06:20 mark and watch. As soon as she turns to run down court she grabs her hair. While on the offense side (lower left in frame) she adjust her hair just in time to receive a pass and drain a 3.

The announcers did not comment? .

I'll take your word for it, but I would have guessed KLS...

You would be wrong. It was definitely Megan Gardler. And the announcers did comment on it. During a timeout later in the game they cued up the "tape" beginning at the point where Megan bent over to pick up a bobby pin which she then calmly reinserted in her hair. Megan Culmo was greatly impressed, both by the emergency grooming and by the ease with which Gardler drained the three.

Dang,I never cease to be amazed, as a newbie I have yet to see the BY stumped. I swear ya'll are better than the Library of Congress. Also a little scary, for any privacy I bet those involved in the Husky Nation have to walk around in the cloak of secrecy. Merry Christmas to all

Great to hear the crowd in that "hair do" video.

Favorite CD2 moment: during NC vs Louisville, CD2 sends a message that UCONN will not take the crap they dished out to Baylor in the semi. See about 1 hour in to video (16:39 game time, first half). CD2 was badass!

Definitely NOT Caroline D. The Honey-Badger was not into cosmetic moments!!

Right, Lobo not Culmo. I was going off memory, which is rarely wise at my age.

It's one of the UCONN baskets with a name: Bird at the Buzzer, Gardler's Hair, Wrong Way Swin, Rizzotti Coast to Coast, Swanier for the Win, Strother Behind the Back, Pulido in the Final, Buck in the Final, Sales after the Injury, And then, of course, all of DT's: 3 point play vs. Oklahoma, Punching the Orange, 3 Pointer to go to OT, 3/4 Court Shot.
