1. Ayanna has had this same knee problem since 10th grade with temporary fixes.

2. Azzi Fudd’s doing great. The athletic training staff said she's doing great, that she's way ahead of where she normally would be at this time. Auriemma said - “She's been through this before when she was in high school, so it's not anything new."

Milestone watch

• Aaliyah Edwards has 1340 career points after the North Carolina game. She is in 39th place. She needs 25 points to catch Charde Houston.

• Nika Mühl had 466 assists after the Ball State game. She is in sole possession of 18th place. She needs 9 to tie Svetlana Abrosimova.

• Paige Bueckers reached the 1000-point milestone, early in the second half in the game against North Carolina. The two points broke the halftime tie, and were the start of a UConn run. Paige ties Maya Moore reaching the milestone in 55 games, the fewest of any UConn player.

Very nice win for the Huskies, that could have gone the wrong way without great effort. Parts of the game were predictable, Paige being Paige. But many results were not on my Bingo Card. For example, Paige with four (4) "not in my house" shot blocks..! Here are a few others:

1. Nika shooting 4-7 on threes (57%). That was 1/2 the 8 made threes.
2. UConn with 48 points in the 1st and 3rd periods, but only 28 in 2nd and 4th.
3. Deja Kelly starting the game 3 for 3, but finishing 2 for 10.
4. The Huskies shooting 61% from the free throw stripe. UNC was worse at 50%.
5. UConn beat UNC by 12 points. South Carolina beat them by only 7 pts.
6. KK Arnold leading the team with 4 fouls. (Nika rubbing off...;))
7. Aaliyah with 0 turnovers.
8. Paige taking only 1 three point shot.

Many stats were what fans have come to expect.

1. Paige scoring 26 pts on 11-14 shooting.
2. Double double by Aaliyah with 16 pts/11 boards.
3. Aubrey quietly stat stuffing (8 rebounds, 5 pts, 4 assists, 2 steals & 1 block)
4. Winning at Mohegan where UConn is 38-1.
5. UConn with 21 points off turnovers.

Great win, players working out the issues..!!

Go Huskies..!!

STATS

Plus one for every assist block point rebound and steal. I don’t add extra for offensive rebounds as it already seems to favor the bigs. Minus one for every missed shot (2, 3 or foul), turnover or foul committed.

We have Paige and they don’t!

UConn 74 North Carolina 53.

Paige 29, Aaliyah 16, Aubrey 13, Ashlynn 8, Nika 8, Qadence 1, KK 1, Ice -2.

Year: Paige 169, Aaliyah 138, Aubrey 115, Nika 73, KK 62, Ashlynn 41, Qadence 28, Ice 4.

Year per minute: Paige .65, Aubrey .55, Aaliyah .50, Qadence.27, Ashlynn .27, KK .27, Nika .25, Ice .03.

Paige Blockers!! Great win. Beat Louisville. The Great Eight!
