- Rachid Meziane's first week in CT came with constant meetings & culture shock after leaving his home in France, but the Sun coach is all in on his new challenge. “To learn to swim, you have to go to the swimming pool, so I’m getting in the pool as much as possible.” www.courant.com/2025/01/16/c...
- UConn star Azzi Fudd suffered a minor right knee sprain in the Huskies’ win over Louisville that will keep her out foe at least this week, according to Geno Auriemma. The latest on her status, plus updates on Ayanna Patterson, Aubrey Griffin and Caroline Ducharme: www.courant.com/2024/12/10/u...
- When Sarah Strong is on the court, it's easy to forget she's only a freshman. Her most rookie moment in a 21-point outing for UConn vs. No. 22 Louisville came after the game, when Paige Bueckers made a reference to 'Go Go Gadget' that bewildered the 18-year-old: www.courant.com/2024/12/08/f...
- The Cleary family traveled nearly 3,000 miles to the Baha Mar Women’s Championship just to see Paige Bueckers & Azzi Fudd play together in person. UConn’s long-awaited backcourt duo made the trip well worth it, leading the Huskies to the tournament title: www.courant.com/2024/11/29/p...
- Azzi Fudd wasn’t happy it took her 8 attempts, but seeing her first 3-pointer fall vs Oregon State was a moment of joyful relief for UConn women’s basketball. In just 2 games back from an ACL tear, Fudd is rediscovering her confidence on both ends of the floor: www.courant.com/2024/11/27/a...

- Gameday vibes in Nassau 🌞
- Amid UConn's unprecedented rash of injuries, Geno Auriemma often wondered if the adversity was an a omen telling him to walk away. But Wednesday was a beacon of hope for the Huskies, a celebration of Auriemma's continued longevity on the night of Azzi Fudd's return: www.courant.com/2024/11/21/a...
- Chris Dailey fielded several offers to leave UConn for head coach jobs but always found herself drawn back to Storrs. 40 years later, her partnership with Geno Auriemma carries an unmatched legacy. "The longer I stayed here, the more I knew this was a special place.” www.courant.com/2024/11/19/w...

- Good morning from Greensboro! Tonight, Geno Auriemma can tie Tara Vanderveer as the winningest coach in college basketball history with a victory over UNC. Nine months ago, he said "with a great deal of certainty" that it was a record he'd never hold: www.courant.com/2024/11/13/u...
