The crisp, chilly air and that trademark Storrs wind can only mean one thing: basketball season is here. This season has the makings to be a special one, a historic one in fact. On the women’s side, Head Coach Geno Auriemma and the squad are chasing their fourth consecutive national championship. Lead by veteran seniors Breanna Stewart and Moriah Jefferson, the team has already jumped out to an undefeated start. As for the men’s team, they are looking to bounce back from last year’s NIT appearance and the loss of a team leader in Ryan Boatright. After just a handful of games that have included a pair of tough losses to rival Syracuse and nationally ranked Gonzaga, this group has proven that they will be an exciting team to watch and a postseason contender. With November wrapping up and the bulk of the season coming just around the corner, Nutmeg looks at what makes this year’s women and men’s teams so unique, and why this season matters. 6 NUTMEG.UCONN.EDU FACEBOOK.COM/UCONNNUTMEGPUBLISHING 7 THE WOMEN been set, a fourth championship for her four years of college ball would irrevocably Legends, history, champions—all words dub her as the most dominant player thus commonly associated with the UConn far in the women’s college game. women’s basketball team.
