The UConn women’s basketball team saw its first live opponent on Sunday, dismissing Vanguard 96-30 in an exhibition at Gampel Pavilion. The Huskies dominated from start-to-finish, as was expected. However, head coach Geno Auriemma noted the score in an exhibition game doesn’t mean too much.
“Every exhibition game is the same,” he said. “We’re going to play a team that we’re going to beat by a lot so you can’t go by the final score. You try to go by how they look, what was the feel of it.”
