Some of the most remarkable women to touch a basketball went to USC and UConn. Players such as Cheryl Miller, Cynthia Cooper-Dyke, Lisa Leslie, Tina Thompson, and Pamela McGee, all Trojans, went on犀利士 into either the Women’s Hall of Fame or the Naismith Hall of Fame.
The same could be said for the the University of Connecticut with players such as Rebecca Lobo, Kara Wolters, Jennifer Rizzotti, Swin Cash, and future Hall of Famers, Sue Bird, Breanna Stewart, Diana Taurasi, Tina Charles, and Maya Moore.
If you look at all the players that went to UConn, you can pick numerous lineups to play against a stack USC lineup in their own right. Huskies legend Sue Bird elected to take her 2001-02 senior class, which featured “I have to pick the starting five from my senior mainly because I think it is one of the best-starting fives that UConn had, and I think what we did that year speaks for itself,” said Bird. “Those are my people; those were my experiences in Connecticut with Tameka Williams, Swin Cash, Asjha Jones, Diana Taurasi. That would be my five, and I would go to war with anybody, to be honest with those other four. USC is tough, though.”
Bird’s Storm teammate Breanna Stewart, also weighed in saying that her money was on UConn earlier this week.
“It something the really make you think. Obviously, looking at USC and the legends that have been created from that program, and the same with UConn. If that was able to happen, my money is on UConn,” said Stewart. “I got gotta stay with the home team, but it is something that makes you really think about [in terms] of women’s basketball and really the all-time [players] from USC and UConn.”
