UConn women’s basketball is in the midst of a five-game road trip — the program’s longest in over 40 years. Normally, the time spent away from home can help a team bond by eating team meals together, doing activities at the hotel, and, if time allows, exploring the city they’re in. But this isn’t a normal year.
“It’s nothing like it used to be,” head coach Geno Auriemma shared. “They’re missing out on a lot.”
When the Huskies traveled down to Washington DC to play Georgetown a couple of weeks ago, Auriemma decided to take the team out to dinner for the first time all season — typically a far more frequent occurrence.
