The UConn women’s basketball team travels all over the country this season. They play in the US Virgin Islands, the west coast, New Orleans, St. Louis and pretty much everywhere in between. But no trip will be more impactful than a 2.5 hour bus trip to the banks of the Hudson River — to the United States Military Academy at West Point.
The team visited last week and spoke with a handful of generals, including Lieutenant General Darryl A. Williams, superintendent of the school, as well as some cadets. For a program that prides itself on hard work, seeing what the cadets go through on a daily basis was an eye-opening experience for them.
