MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA - APRIL 01: Cameron Brink #22 of the Stanford Cardinal shoots the ball over Olivia Nelson-Ododa #20 of the UConn Huskies during the 2022 NCAA Women's Final Four semifinal game 2 at Target Center on April 01, 2022 in MinneapolisIt’s one of the most remarkable records in sports. Geno Auriemma and his UConn Huskies are 11-0 in NCAA championship games.
"I think for me the approach that’s worked the best is make sure you bring the best team," Auriemma said. "So I would venture to say that all 11 times that we’ve won — maybe there was one time — but I don’t think we surprised anybody by winning because we had the best team. We had the best team all year. We had the best talented players. We played harder than everybody. We were just better than everybody.
The Gamecocks have been the best team in the country all season, going wire-to-wire as No. 1 in the AP Poll. The two teams played back in November in a tournament in the Bahamas. South Carolina came away with a 73-57 win, outscoring the Huskies 16-3 in the fourth quarter."The Bahamas game was eons ago," Staley said.
She got a loud cheer during the open practice from the thousands of fans watching their hometown star.
