The UCONN Huskies girls basketball team won their 89th consecutive game.
All I can say is GO GIRLS
What a great team to watch.
They should have a game Uconn Girls vs Uconn Boys
I would bet on the Girls to win
College Basketball: Uconn deserves highest of praise
Last Tuesday night, the UConn women’s basketball team surpassed John Wooden’s great UCLA teams in the early ‘70s by winning their 89th straight game, not only achieving sports history, but also the architect of one of the all-time great sports stories.
And it’s come not without a certain controversy, one fueled by coach Geno Auriemma’s postgame press conference Sunday night after his team had tied the record with 88 straight wins in Division I basketball.
“Because we’re breaking a men’s record we’re getting a lot of attention,” he said, but he didn’t stop there.
“If we were breaking a women’s record, everyone would say, ‘Aren’t those girls nice,’ “ he continued, “let’s give them two paragraphs in USA Today, you know, give them two lines in the bottom of ESPN, and let’s send them back where they belong, in the kitchen.”
