In its toughest test of the preseason, UConn women's basketball used a strong second half to roll over Texas. So what can we learn from the victory? We get into that – why you should feel good about the Huskies after that performance, taking stock of the offense, whether they're ahead of schedule – and much more on this week's episode.
Chasing Perfection is presented by the UConn WBB Weekly. Get all your coverage of the Huskies at www.uconnwbbweekly.com.
UConn women's basketball's season is (unofficially) underway. On Monday, the Huskies took the court for their first exhibition game, taking down Syracuse at Mohegan Sun Arena. After getting our first real look at this year's team, we break down the top performers – from Jovana Popovic and Olivia Vukosa to the seniors – get into what caught our eye (24 free throw attempts!!!), and preview the upcoming matchup with Texas.
Chasing Perfection co-hosted by Daniel Connolly and Megan Gauer, and is presented by the UConn WBB Weekly.
After taking a break over the summer, Chasing Perfection is back for another season. On this episode, we recap every we missed during the offseason:
The addition of Marine Dursus
Nykesha Sales replacing Jamelle Elliott on staff
The Achilles injury that Sarah Strong battled last season
UConn's full schedule and lack of non-conference games in the new year
We also get into our early thoughts on this year's team and look ahead to the rest of the preseason.
UConn isn't adding anyone via the transfer portal this offseason, so its 2026-27 roster is set barring any surprises. On this episode, we look ahead to next season and break down the Huskies player-by-player.
The offseason is in full swing. Last week, Geno Auriemma met with the media to talk about his altercation with Dawn Staley, Sarah Strong's health and summer plans, what went wrong for the Huskies in the NCAA Tournament and more. On this episode, we discuss his thoughts, reflect on last season and take an early look ahead to next year.
UConn’s season is over. Despite entering the Final Four on a 54-game winning streak, the Huskies went down at the hands of South Carolina in the national semifinal. On this episode, we try to make sense of what went wrong for UConn down the stretch, not just in Phoenix but across the entire NCAA Tournament. We also look back at the season as a whole and discuss the incident between Geno Auriemma and Dawn Staley.
