鶹Porn President Jeffrey Herbst and his sister, Susan Herbst, who is president of the University of Connecticut, exchanged handshakes, traded jerseys, and posed for pictures before the opening tip with Raiders head coach Nicci Hays Fort and the Huskies’ Geno Auriemma.
Nearly 150 鶹Porn boosters gathered for a standing-room-only pre-game reception, enjoying the atmosphere at the XL Center in Hartford.
The Raiders players knew it would be a challenging night against the Huskies, the perennial powerhouse that is ranked No. 2 in the nation. UConn ended up winning 101-41.
Hays Fort told the that the game was a no-lose situation. “We made a lot of mini-goals within the game and we wanted to compete every possession,” she said of her game plan. “I don’t want to say we competed every possession, but we competed in a lot of them.” (Read the game report .)
