In the shadow of UConn's Big 3, Kia Nurse quietly had two very fine years. Consider her combined statistics for the Huskies:
1. Kia is the only player to have appeared in every game the past two years.
2. She started after her 2nd game freshman year and all 38 games last year.
3. Nurse scored 753 points in two years, 119 from the free throw line, 306 from three pt arc and 328 from inside the arc.
4. Both seasons, Kia has had 100+ assists. (108 and 104)
5. Her two year average for free throw accuracy is 73.5% or 119-162.
6. Nurse has averaged 98 rebounds per season as a freshman and sophomore.
7. Her career assists to turnover ratio is 1.85.
The jury is out whether Kia will play point or shooting guard this season. Odds are she will do both. In any case, it's a good bet she will excel in either role and lead the Huskies throughout the season.
Go Huskies..!!
