Major congratulations to the UConn women, as most people who followed this team did not have great confidence at the midpoint of this season that they could win the national champioship. But in the last 2 months since the loss at Tennessee, they improved remarkably particularly on the defensive end.

This was one of if not the most dominant NCAA tournament runs they have had, as they won their last 3 NCAA tournament games over 3 #1 seeds by 14, 34 and 23 points, and the final game against South Carolina easily could have been a 30 point win had the starters been left in.

Final 4 MVP Azzi Fudd really came on strong in the latter part of the season and her defense improved immensely - will be fun watching her, Sarah, Jana, KK, Ashlynn and the other ladies who are all returning next year, possibly with a big portal add or two.
