Women's basketball seems to have a trend where 1 programs

dominates until another program takes its place. First there was La Tech Lady Techsters (don't call us Lady Bulldogs). Then there was ODU and its African Connection. After ODU came Tennessee under Pat Summitt (RIP), and now UConn resigns supreme.

Eventually Geno Auriemma will retire (unless he has found the Fountain of Youth) and at that point UConn will take a step back like what happened to the Lady Vols when Summitt retired. At that point the window will be "open" for some other program to become "queen of the hill." Now that program may not have as long of a reign as UConn. Then again it could surpass all the standards being established by UConn now.

To make the title game a little more entertaining, maybe UConn could play -- squarerootofone 03/27/2017 8:45PM

That was a REALLY entertaining game. Didn't need an all-star lineup. ** -- TexasGobbler 04/01/2017 12:35AM

It sure was. Good to see some different teams in the ch'ship game. ** -- squarerootofone 04/01/2017 4:40PM

They should provide the motivation for other programs to catch up. -- EDGEMAN 03/28/2017 10:07AM

I remember Lieberman, Donavan, Nissen. What was the African Connection? -- 48zip 03/31/2017 07:36AM

I am only familiar with ODU's women's program during the 1980s -- VTHokie2000 03/31/2017 10:34AM

Thanks. I didn't realize that. Stanley definitely went to Europe. -- 48zip 03/31/2017 10:43AM

I don't think any of them were superstars like Lieberman and Nissen -- VTHokie2000 03/31/2017 10:53AM

Wow. I forgot about Ticha. She was awesome. ** -- 48zip 03/31/2017 11:01AM

Only reason I remember Ticha is because I was at VT while Spoon -- VTHokie2000 03/31/2017 11:06AM

It's really just been UConn and Tennessee being that dominant -- Pylons 03/29/2017 10:19AM

I know, but I was looking beyond titles since the women's tournament -- VTHokie2000 03/29/2017 11:17AM
