Over their tenure at UConn, Kia Nurse and Gabby Williams won 148 games, losing just three times. They contributed to two national championship teams—part of the greatest run of dominance in the history of the sport—and two more Final Four appearances that ended with 36-1 seasons. At any other school in the country, that would be an unprecedented career of breakthrough excellence.
At UConn, it’s still outstanding, but unfortunately part of their legacy will include falling short of expectations.
This is unfortunate, because they accomplished so damn much and did it all while contributing great character and personality to the story of UConn women’s basketball over the past four years.
