Great for her. She's been a successful highschool coach.

That is a great news ...
WestConn, this is where I used to live for 20 years, from 1980 - 2000, Danbury, CT.

How long will we have to wait for an exhibition game on UConn's schedule?

LOL, I believe WestConn is a division 3 school.

My alma mater

She's right down the road from me. I'll have to catch a game or two at the O'Neill center on campus.

WestConn grade here. Good for Maria. Good for the program.

I wish her well, although I must confess : western Connecticut is foreign to me. Where is it?

If my memory serves me correctly, it's on Danbury.

You went to WestConn for 20 years?

Western is in Danbury, CT. Mid-town campus and west side campus. Athletic facilities are located on the west side campus. And they are good facilities.

1975 and 1981 grad. BS and MS in music education.

UConn never played Tufts, and they were at least a top 10 D3 team.

It will be an accomplishment for Maria just to get them over .500 — last time was 2017.

No, I live in Danbury for 20 years. Where WestConn is in Danbury, a small town in CT.

Derby, Ansonia, Connecticut OWN. The most UNDERRATED UCONN player EVER/ She was cool under pressure, made DT look good, fed her where and when she needed it. 3 point shot as good as the best. Took a lot of unnecessary "knocks". Yes, she's one of us Nutmeggers--and I'm a fan.

K--if Danbury is SMALL what does that make PLYMOUTH or South Britian??

Danbury population is 87K, Plymouth is 60K as 2022. When I was in Danbury the population was, may be, 60K. Actually I like small town. I remember I used to go to Brewster NY then take the train to NYC when I was in Danbury.

I went to Kent* and (assuming I remember correctly) we used to do the same thing for NYC trips. Wasn't a bad ride at all.

*Definitely a small town, but gorgeous place to live for those who can afford it!
