UConn WBB Postgame Notes: Geno wants Dangerfield to have a score-first mentality

For the last three seasons, Crystal Dangerfield has been the floor general for UConn women’s basketball. And for three seasons, she’s been one of the best distributors in program history.

The senior is close to breaking into the top-10 for all-time assists and finished with the second most assists of any player in school history with a stellar 2018-19 season. Dangerfield has been a typical pass-first player, finding chances for her teammates to score while only putting up shots when the defense gives it to her.

But against Wichita State, Dangerfield flipped that script. She created offense for herself first before creating for other people and finished with a game-high 22 points on 8-13 shooting.
