In the end, it was Notre Dame's year, though UConn fans will probably
always believe that it would have been different had not both
Svetlana Abrosimova and Shea Ralph not gone down with season-ending
injuries.
Approaching the
NCAAs, most respondents to this week's SNET Internet survey thought
the Huskies would go all the way, anyway.
Q: How far will the UConn women go in the NCAA tournament?
- All the way - 2,943 (61%)
- Final Four - 1,294 (27%)
- Great Eight - 225 (5%)
- Sweet 16 - 104 (2%)
- Too bad about Svet and Shea... - 273 (6%)
Your comments:
"I think the UCONN 'ladies' will do just fine in the NCAAs. It's too bad Svet and Shea won't be able to play, but the team has got some MIGHTY freshwomen that can take up the slack. I'm sure you know Svet and Shea will be there YELLING the loudest for their TEAMMATES. The guys could take a lesson from the ladies about 'TEAM', but that's another survey. GO HUSKEY WOMEN! Bring Home The Championship!" F.M.C., Chester
"Diana has to stay out of foul trouble, Kelly needs to have her game head on and Ashja needs to get MEANER! Great kids to watch!" R.E.P., Gales Ferry
"This group of ladies are truly a TEAM and play like a great one. They deserve to win it all and I feel they will be Champions again this year. GO HUSKIES! CT LOVES YA." G.B., Watertown
"White women can't jump, but neither can black women. The whole league is pathetic. When will it be over?" Al, No Town
"Of course they are going to go all the way! No one can stop them." Shanna, Bridgeport
"UCONN Women's basketball is awesome!" M.R., Branford
"What about the 'WHO CARES?' comment? It's great to see people interested in sports, but not everybody likes basketball. I have lived here in Connecticut most of my life & am sick of basketball, basketball, basketball! It's not like it is even pro-ball. Anyway, baseball & football are my thing. You should have submitted a who cares comment." J., Naugatuck
"You forgot a choice for 'who cares'!" A.W., Winsted
"Even without Svet & Shea, UConn is better than every other team out there - including Tennessee and Notre Dame! (Who, by the way would be nowhere without Ruth Riley)" Drew, New Haven
"They're going all the way man! No, not really. They suck." M., No Town
