“[Aubrey’s role is] an important role,” UConn coach Geno Auriemma said. “We really need to have Aubrey’s activity level, her defensive activity level, and her ability to get on the backboard, and some things that she can make happen that other players can’t. And she’s becoming more and more comfortable and feeling better, and I think those things are going to give her a lot of confidence going forward. I’m glad she’s getting a lot of minutes to build on that.”
“I feel great,” Griffin said. “I’m just going to continue to do what I’m doing now, just attacking, playing defense and trying to change the energy overall, and just have an impact all the time.”
"It took some time for Muhl to settle in. She hit two threes for a career-high six points, but struggled with turnovers (five), especially late in the game. She was active on the defensive end though, coming away with three steals.
“Nika plays with a lot of emotion,” Auriemma said. “I thought for her first time out there, she’s going to do a lot of things that are going to make you want to pull your hair out, but I think as she grows, hopefully she becomes a little more disciplined in her approach, and is going to be somebody that hopefully can help us going forward.”
