UConn Husky Women's Basketball - catch the fever!

'Tis the season... folks are putting up wreaths, Christmas trees, shopping and planning.

'Tis also college basketball season!

I'm not sure why the frenzy exists in Northeastern CT for the UConn Husky Women's team, but it does, and I joined the followers years ago.

Fans are very loyal, many planning around the team's schedule. Babies, toddlers, teenagers, young adults, middle aged, older folks, men and women alike follow Geno's team with a fevered passion!

Could it be that they have excelled so much over the years that it is easy to follow and cheer them on? Perhaps.
Could it be that most of their games are shown on CT Public Television making it very easy to follow them? Perhaps.
Could it be that when each new season starts, we hang with anticipation to see how good this year's team will be, after the graduation of so many stars from last year? Perhaps.
Could it be that getting to know the players and having something fun to watch gets us through the long, cold, dark winters? Perhaps.

Perhaps it is a little of all of these things. Whatever it is, UConn fever is here to stay. Flags, license plate holders, bumper stickers, t-shirts all advertise our team!

Go HUSKIES!

I am a Putnamaniac because we support a great & entertaining women's college basketball team!
