IMHO, I don't see HC WBB as "cowering"at all. This game against a D3 team showed that our younger players can indeed score and several looked solid. I do hope that BPC was just "taking a rest" so some of our youngsters could get in and have some court time...but that is viewed through clerly purple lenses.

I rip the men's team when they play D3 schools and I will do the same for the women. This needs to stop now. Go play a money game somewhere. How much money is there in WBB? UConn generates good revenue but the last few HC vs UConn was cruel and unusual punishment for the flailing Crusaders and at least this fan. There was a certain integrity to last night's game because it was a D-3 team playing a team two divisions higher with each team using the game for their own purposes with nobody trying to portay Connecticut College as a D-1 team. The last UConn-HC games were between two opponents in the same division but HC looking like a D-3 team or UConn looking like a WNBA team, whichever you prefer. So, take any good pay games you can get but realize there isn't that much money in WBB and the whole team including freshmen might benefit more from a game against Connecticut College than UConn.

So, BPC out for "personal reasons,"nhopefully nothing to keep her away for long. This bears watching. Hope all is well with BPC and family.

Could BPC have asked for and was granted the time off for end of semester studies? It would be the perfect game for that. She might have her sights set on a selective grad school...that has a D-1 WBB team.
