Weekly Spotlight: Morgan Tuck

[pap49cba]

"That's the reason I came to Connecticut. I don't think you come to this school without having the intent to win a national championship. To get that title in my first year really opens my eyes to what is possible for this team. It's awesome to be a part of."

As with Tiff, Caroline, Kelly, and others, winning in your first year gives you a shot at the seemingly impossible career Grand Slam. Go Morgan! Go Breanna! Go Moriah! Go Huskies!

Speaking of last year's nat'l champions, here's a nice photo from halftime of the football game:

A few random thoughts:

Is Geno getting shorter?

Stef is a character. And also very pretty.

Is the 7th grader in 8th grade yet?

CD always looks good!

Is Stewie still growing??

Is Stewie still growing??
Sure seems like it.
Counting on my fingers: only Miss Caroline missing, that is Heather next to Morgan, I think.

A couple more.

Yes, Geno does seem to be getting shorter.
Stewart looks to be about 6-7 (i.e. 2" taller than Dolson) in that picture???
My wife would love Shea and Marisa's boots.
Shea and Marisa have the pose down pat.
CD sleeveless while Dolson and Hartley have knit caps? Women and their fashions
Nice smiles all around. Does UCONN have a dental school?

First to the topic of the thread: Ms. Tuck "gets it" - to win a Nat Championship as a freshman, may indeed open your eyes to the possibilities. The opposite side though is understanding how difficult it really is.

As to the veering off topic which the thread has taken: Does the wonderful picture settle once and for all the height of Bria Hartley? If not, then why was the picture taken?

Sad not to see Kelly....such a huge part of the team's success...Caroline being off in Nike land,probably couldn't make it back for weekend....Thank you so much for the picture!!

"Is Geno getting shorter?"

It's quite possible. I am nearly an inch shorter than I was 20 years ago. Then again it might be a matter of perspective. He certainly appears to be getting wider.

Tuck is so poised.... it's the one quality that always stands out when I hear her interviewed.

Morgan is indeed solid.

Another one who is poised, well beyond her years, is Kaleena.

What great kids!

What's more, both of them will have plenty of competition in this department when Sadie Edwards joins the group!

Methinks Sadie is a 30-year-old walking around in a high school body

Agreed! Way more poised than I am! Well, that's not a good comparison.

Morgan Tuck is if you will playing in the shadow of Stewart and KML. This season she will showcase her skills . I think there is a very good chance of her starting. She will be the Means to the End for UConn over the next 3 seasons. We all want and know we need another big and Wilson would be it. However with the emergence of MT I think we will be fine until Geno gets that Big. There are a lot of bigs out there. We want a UConn Big.

I thought Bria Hartley was taller.
