Monday’s game against Central Florida served as a reminder: Yes, UConn is back to full strength—or something close to it, emmabaccellieri writes
It was chippy, it was tense and it certainly wasn’t pretty. But No. 2 UConn pushed past No. 7 Central Florida to land a place in the Sweet 16 on Monday, extending its own NCAA record for the program’s 28th consecutive appearance in the women’s tournament’s second weekend.
“It was what we thought it would be,” said UConn coach Geno Auriemma. “It was going to be difficult. It was going to be really ugly-looking. And it was.” “We didn't have our best game today, but I'm really proud of our team,” said senior guard Christyn Williams. “We grinded it out. It was very ugly, but we got the dub and that's all that matters.”David Butler II/USA Today Sports
