Says a lot about Azzi that she graduated early ahead of schedule instead of sitting around feeling sorry for herself she hit the books. Congrats to all especially Azzi now hopefully with her Paige and Aubrey returning as grad students they can concentrate on staying healthy and basketball..

That's a helluva starting 5 (if they were ever healthy at the same time).

They hacked Geno's instragram, posted the pictures. Then proceeded to add themselves as friends

Congratulations to all the UConn graduates. But to Azzi in particular, who is graduating in just 3 years, WELL DONE!!!

Awesome pics! Azzi certainly made good use of her time off from basketball!

 

[Skeets]

Time to start a masters degree program for our return graduates in basketballology.

I believe Paige already has a PhD in basketball.

Her course load could have been heavier than most from the start. To ramp it up in a junior year is very unusual as the junior year is typically harder.

Love the sneakers.

Congrats to these fine young women! Once again you’ve made your fans super proud of your accomplishments. Go Huskies! Go UConn!!

AZzi probably took a lot of AP classes in high school. My younger daughter started UConn with 31 credits .

I'm fairly certain Fudd was not just offered but also admitted to Stanford (unlike a lot of our early offers that fizzle out with a "small envelope"), so not surprised she's a smart cookie who can graduate in 3 years where most take 4!

Great pictures and congrats to all of them. How/why are they graduating in April instead of May? Just curious.

I'm thinking that they all received caps & gowns, and wanted to take pictures, as with the WNBA draft on April 15th, Liya and Nika won't have much time after that, and may not be able to walk in the ceremony.

Many top high school students enter their freshman year with credits already granted due to their AP coursework and scores

Congratulations to the girls! We will have three graduates playing on the team next year! If we pick up two more from the portal, we can play 5 graduates every now and then!

 

[Linart]

I believe on the men's side, Emeka Okafor also graduated in three years.

 

[Forego]

Can’t quite put my finger on it but for some reason they look really impressive in blue and white.

 

[MSGRET]

So Paige and Azzi will go for their Masters next year, with both of them being eligible for another year after 2025.

Nice shoes! "Gotta be the shoes!"

Congratulations to these impressive young women! I would have loved to have seen them on the court at the same time, but they were still wonderful & supportive teammates. Wishing Aaliyah and Nika lots of luck in the W, and really hoping to see the other three healthy and on court together by January 1st (if not sooner).

Question: since Paige has graduated can she go on the Wall while she’s still an active player or does she have to wait until she leaves? Thanks!
