In Connecticut’s 81-38 Senior Day triumph over the Providence Friars on Sunday, Strong produced 13 points in 13 minutes. It should come as no surprise to see the North Carolina native return to 20-plus minutes.
When it comes to grabbing rebounds, one player to keep an eye on is Jana El Alfy. Within 19 minutes versus the Friars, the center secured a career-high 16 boards.
“I feel like right now I’m starting to get my confidence back, starting to be in a very good place mentally,” said El Alfy. “I’m just trying to build off of it [confidence] every day and just focus on the things that I need to get really good at for the tournament.”
Injury-wise, everyone is good to go.
“As a couple of them [players] have gotten under the weather a little bit, I’ve noticed we’re tired,” said Head Coach Geno Auriemma. “They look great now. They sound better, feel better, so little by little, I think we’re getting back to where we were.”
