Congrats to Swin, not only are the men's team behind in Championships, now they are behind in retired jerseys. I predict that there will be a few more women's retired jerseys in the future.;)

Yeah, she earned it.

Whenever I think of Swin my thoughts (no doubt unfairly) always go
to the two points she scored for UCLA. A classic UConn WBB moment.

Let’s see but #10 will be next followed by #3. The rafters at UConn will look similar to the NY Yankees in retired numbers soon.

One more reason to attend the game if you can.
If memory doesn't fail me, I believe once upon a time Geno would not agree to retire numbers. His retort when ask such a question was along the line of---we'll run out of numbers.

The Celtics and Lakers haven’t run out of numbers yet, and they have a lot of retired numbers with more to come. If they can do it, UConn can.

There have been many great players at UConn who may never get their number retired. The main criteria for a number being retired at UConn is being inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame. Currently with the addition of Swin that number is only two in Geno's first 37 years as the coach of UConn.

And I thought that I held grudges!
