I've told my story with UConn women's basketball before, but here is a very quick summary.  As a student at UConn, I went to a bunch of games at the old field house from 1983 to 1985.  I started going because I was looking for cheap entertainment (nothing is cheaper than free admission), but I quickly grew to like the game and got enamored of the play of players like Leigh Curl, Peggy Walsh, and others.  That was my introduction to women's basketball.  I graduated and moved away.  While I didn't follow the team closely at that point, I was vaguely aware of their rise in the Big East under the young Geno.  I really got back into it during the first run to the final four, coming across the regional games in Philadelphia on television, followed by the final four in New Orleans.  With the appearance in the final four, I was hooked.

The following year (same as yours, Lobo's first season) my wife and I started to attend games regularly and listening to other games at the time on WHUS. We've been season ticket holders starting with the first NCAA championship season.  But yes, that first season of watching games I was wowed by Davis and her great three point shooting.
