Husky Tournament Notables<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> leads the nation in blocked shots for the seventh<br />
straight season. The six straight seasons is already an <strong>NCAA</strong><br />
record and is the second longest streak in any of the 12<br />
statistical categories in <strong>NCAA</strong> History. Princeton led the<br />
nation in scoring defense 12 straight seasons from 1989-<br />
2000, the only longer streak than <strong>UConn</strong>’s block run.<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> has a record of 14-0 in the First Round of the <strong>NCAA</strong><br />
Tournament under Jim Calhoun, one of only two schools<br />
to record a perfect first round mark since 1990. Kentucky<br />
is 16-0 in the first round in that same span.<br />
Hasheem Thabeet is ranked No. 3 nationally in blocked<br />
shots at 4.5 per game. He averaged 5.2 blocks per game<br />
in BIG EAST games and broke the BIG EAST Record for<br />
blocked shots in league play with 94, surpassing the 93<br />
blocks by Alonzo Mourning of Georgetown in 1991-92.<br />
Jeff Adrien has 32 career double-doubles, more than any<br />
other active BIG EAST player. He had 16 double-doubles<br />
this season, tying Luke Harangody of Notre Dame for the<br />
BIG EAST lead. Adrien also tied for the BIG EAST lead in<br />
2006-07 with 15 dbl-dbl’s.<br />

1999, in the school’s only two <strong>NCAA</strong> Final Four appearances.<br />
The <strong>Huskies</strong> have reached the <strong>NCAA</strong> Elite Eight eight times and<br />
the Sweet Sixteen 14 times in school history. <strong>UConn</strong> is 36-11<br />
in the <strong>NCAA</strong> Tournament in 14 appearances under Jim Calhoun<br />
and were 4-14 in 13 appearances in the tourney prior to<br />
Calhoun’s arrival in Storrs.<br />
22-5 in LAST SEVEN <strong>NCAA</strong>’S: <strong>UConn</strong> has registered a 22-<br />
5 record in the last seven appearances in the <strong>NCAA</strong> Tournament,<br />

reached the <strong>NCAA</strong> Second Round in 2000, reached the <strong>NCAA</strong><br />
Elite Eight in 2002, advanced to the Sweet 16 in 2003 and went<br />

a spotless 14-0 in <strong>NCAA</strong> First Round play under Coach Calhoun.<br />

HUSKIES PACE BIG EAST IN <strong>NCAA</strong>: Since the 1990<br />
<strong>NCAA</strong> <strong>Championship</strong>, Connecticut has been the "best" of the<br />
BIG EAST Conference in <strong>NCAA</strong> <strong>Championship</strong> play. <strong>UConn</strong> has<br />
won 36 <strong>NCAA</strong> games in the span starting with the 1990<br />
tournament and continuing up into the 2008 tournament.<br />
Syracuse is second with 24 <strong>NCAA</strong> wins in that span while<br />
Georgetown has 17 <strong>NCAA</strong> wins followed by Pittsburgh with ten,<br />
St. John's and Seton Hall with nine wins apiece and Villanova<br />

<strong>NCAA</strong> PLAY IN BIG EAST CITIES: For the 16th game<br />
under Jim Calhoun, <strong>UConn</strong> will take the court in <strong>NCAA</strong><br />
Tournament competition in a city that hosts BIG EAST regular<br />
season competition. The <strong>Huskies</strong> are 11-4 in such contests.<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> won its first two games in 2006 in the Wachovia Center<br />
in Philadelphia over Albany and Kentucky and then split a pair<br />
of games at the Verizon Center in Washington D.C. with<br />
Washington and George Mason. In 2002, <strong>UConn</strong> won a pair of<br />
games at the then-MCI Center in Washington (home of<br />
Georgetown) and then split a pair of games in the Carrier Dome<br />
(home of Syracuse), falling to Maryland in the Elite Eight. In<br />
1998, the <strong>Huskies</strong> won twice in the MCI Center, beating FDU<br />
and Indiana in the first two rounds of the tournament. In 1994,<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> fell to Florida in Miami Arena (home of Miami) in the<br />
Sweet 16. In 1990, <strong>UConn</strong> won a pair of games in the Hartford<br />
Civic Center (its own home arena) and then split a pair of<br />
contests at the Meadowlands (home of Seton Hall), losing to<br />
Duke in the Elite Eight.<br />
UCONN VS. THE 2008 FIELD: <strong>UConn</strong> has a record of 6-<br />
6 this season against teams that earned a spot in the tourney<br />
field. <strong>UConn</strong> was 1-1 against Notre Dame and West Virginia, 1-<br />
0 against Pittsburgh, Louisville, Marquette and Indiana and 0-<br />
1 against Memphis, Gonzaga, Georgetown and Villanova.<br />
NEARING 25 WINS AGAIN: <strong>UConn</strong> and Jim Calhoun have<br />
a chance to reach the 25-win plateau for the 11th time during<br />
his tenure at <strong>UConn</strong>, all coming in the last 19 seasons. The<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> record for wins in a season had been 23 before<br />
Calhoun’s 1989-90 squad went 31-6, the first of Coach Calhoun’s<br />
ten 25-win teams to date.<br />
CALHOUN HONORED: <strong>UConn</strong> head coach Jim Calhoun<br />
has earned a pair of coaching recognitions this season. He has<br />
been named the NABC District Coach of the Year and also the<br />
USBWA District Coach of the Year. It marks the ninth time in<br />
his career that he has earned District honors from the NABC,<br />
six at <strong>UConn</strong> and three times at Northeastern. This is the<br />
second time he has been named the USBWA District Coach of<br />

#-- <strong>UConn</strong> BIG EAST record<br />
*-- as a freshman
a new league standard for defensive excellence. His 94 blocks breaks the mark of 93<br />
held by Alonzo Mourning of Georgetown, accomplished in the 1991-92 season.<br />
Thabeet led the league in blocked shots for the second straight season. He has 143<br />
total blocks on the year, an average of 4.5 per game.<br />
AUSTRIE AS A STARTER: Craig Austrie moved into the starting lineup in the win<br />
at Indiana and is averaging 10.9 points in the 14 games since. He has started 15<br />
games total this season and 45 games in his career. The <strong>Huskies</strong> have a record of 37-<br />
8 in his career as a starter, 12-3 this season, 3-3 last season and 22-2 in 2005-06 as<br />
a freshman. Austrie has reached double figures nine times this season, equaling his<br />
career total of double figure games entering the 2007-08 season.<br />
DYSON RETURNS: Jerome Dyson is averaging 12.4 points per game this season<br />
and has reached double figures in 13 games on the year. He returned to action at<br />
Rutgers on February 26 after being suspended indefinitely on January 25 by coach<br />
Jim Calhoun for violation of team rules. Dyson had 20 points in the win at Cincinnati,<br />
including ten points in the last 5:44 to help erase a 12-point deficit. It marked his fifth<br />
20-point game of the season and ended a slump of three straight games out of double<br />
figures. In the win over St. John’s, Dyson’s nine steals (eight in the first half) tied the<br />
Connecticut record for most thefts in one contest (set by Scott Burrell against Maine<br />
on December 9, 1990.) The nine steals set a school mark for steals in a BIG EAST<br />
game, eclipsing the eight that Bobby Dulin had on January 23, 1980 against<br />
Providence. Dyson led the <strong>Huskies</strong> in scoring as a freshman in 2006-07, reaching<br />
double figures in 11 of the last 12 contests last season and averaged 19.9 points per<br />
game in the last seven contests. He finished the season with 21 points in the BIG EAST<br />
Tournament contest vs. Syracuse, giving him 20 or more points in five of the final<br />
seven games. Including this season’s action, he now has reached 20 points or more<br />
11 times in his career.<br />
TEN IN A ROW: Here are some of the stats and facts from <strong>UConn</strong>’s ten-game win<br />
streak, which ended at Villanova on February 23:<br />
Eight of the ten wins were by single digits.<br />
Average score-- <strong>UConn</strong> 73.6-Opp. 67.9.<br />
There were two wins each by one and two pts.<br />
Eight league wins and two non-conf wins.<br />
Six home wins and four road wins.<br />
Four wins over ranked squads.<br />
Price, Adrien, Thabeet avg. over 35 min/gm.<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> at the line-- 206-269 (76.6%).<br />
Opponents at the line-- 101-151 (66.9%).<br />
FG% DEFENSE LEADERS: <strong>UConn</strong> continues its annual presence among the<br />
national leaders in field goal percentage defense, now having finished among the<br />
nation’s top 15 schools in ten of the last 12 seasons entering 2007-08. The <strong>Huskies</strong><br />
are allowing their opponents to shoot 38.4% from the field this season. In 2006-07,<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> held opponents to 37.1% from the field and ranked No. 1 nationally. That<br />
marked the sixth straight finish in the top five and the second time in four years that<br />
the <strong>Huskies</strong> led the nation in the category.<br />
OUT OF THE BLOCKS AGAIN: The <strong>Huskies</strong> have owned the statistical category<br />
of blocked shots for the past six seasons and, with 281 blocks (8.8/game) this season,<br />
are in position to do it for the seventh straight season. Ten different players have<br />
already blocked at least one shot. With 12 blocked shots in the game at Notre Dame,<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> tied the Joyce Center record for blocked shots by an opponent set by UCLA<br />
on January 27, 1973. <strong>UConn</strong> is the only school in <strong>NCAA</strong> history to lead the country<br />
in blocked shots for six straight seasons, turning the trick in 2006-07 once again. Last<br />
season, the <strong>Huskies</strong> blocked 266 shots (8.6/game), led by Hasheem Thabeet, who<br />
had 119 of the 266 rejections. Eleven different players recorded a blocked shot on<br />
the 2006-07 season. <strong>UConn</strong> has averaged national leading totals of 8.6 in 2006-07,<br />
8.8 in 2005-06, 8.9 blocks in 2004-05, 8.1 blocks in 2003-04, 7.7 blocks in 2002-03<br />
and 6.9 blocks in 2001-02.<br />
HUSKIES IN THE NBA: <strong>UConn</strong> has more alums on active 2007-08 NBA rosters<br />
than any other school in the country. The <strong>Huskies</strong> have 13 former players on NBA<br />
rosters, outdistancing Duke (12), North Carolina (12), Arizona (10), UCLA (10),<br />

George Mason (27-7) 34 40 12 86<br />
Connecticut (30-4) 43 31 10 84<br />
Senior Denham Brown, whose reverse lay-up at the end of regulation forced overtime,<br />
missed a three-pointer at the buzzer in the extra session as No. 11-seed George Mason<br />
defeated No. 1-seed Connecticut, 86-84, in the Regional Final of the Washington Regional<br />
at the Verizon Center. Connecticut almost made a second consecutive miracle<br />
comeback win. The <strong>Huskies</strong> trailed by four, at 74-70 with 17.6 seconds to play, before<br />
All-Region performer Marcus Williams made a runner in the lane. After George Mason’s<br />
Tony Skinn missed the front-end of a one-and-one, Brown drove under the basket and<br />
made a twisting shot to force the extra period. George Mason scored the first points of<br />
overtime on a basket by Will Thomas and never trailed again. The <strong>Huskies</strong> had one<br />
chance to win the contest after Jai Lewis missed two free throws with 6.1 seconds to go.<br />
Brown took a pass, stepped back and barely missed a three-pointer at the buzzer that<br />
would have given the <strong>Huskies</strong> the victory. The <strong>Huskies</strong> were led by sophomore Rudy<br />
Gay, who scored 20 points, and scored nine straight points midway through the second<br />
half when <strong>UConn</strong> was struggling to score. Gay joined Williams on the All-Region team.<br />
Freshman Jeff Adrien gave the <strong>Huskies</strong> a huge lift off of the bench with 17 points and<br />
seven rebounds. He made seven of eight field goal attempts, in setting his career-high<br />
in scoring. Williams was his usual solid self, scoring 13 points and dishing out 11 assists<br />
to register his seventh double-double of the season in just 23 games. Brown finished<br />
with 11 points for <strong>UConn</strong>. The Patriots made up a nine-point halftime deficit in the first<br />
7:27 of the second half, tying the game at 49-all on a three-pointer by Folarin Campbell.<br />
The remainder of the half was a see-saw affair as the lead changed hands 10 times<br />
before George Mason was able to eke out four different four-point leads, the last of<br />
which, at 74-70, which set up the late-game heroics by Brown. Lewis finished with 20<br />
points, and a game-high 12 rebounds. Thomas added 19 points, while the Region’s<br />
Most Outstanding player, Lamar Butler, added 19 points. The <strong>Huskies</strong> finished the first<br />
half with a 15-5 run to take a 43-34 lead into the break. George Mason led 29-28 with<br />
3:09 to go until halftime, but <strong>UConn</strong> responded with a barrage in the final three minutes,<br />
getting three-pointers by Gay, Williams, Brown and Rashad Anderson along with a<br />
conventional three-point play from Ed Nelson to jump out in front by as many as 12, 43-<br />
31. Adrien was vital to the first half effort, coming off the bench to score ten points on<br />
a perfect five-for-five performance from the field. Eight different <strong>Huskies</strong> scored in the<br />
first half and <strong>UConn</strong> turned the ball over only six times while shooting 57.1% from the<br />
field.<br />

Connecticut (30-3) 40 42 16 98<br />
Senior Rashad Anderson hit a long three-pointer with 1.8 seconds left in regulation to<br />
force overtime and top-seeded Connecticut made all eight extra-session free throws to<br />
give the <strong>Huskies</strong> a wild 98-92 victory over fifth-seeded Washington and an entry in the<br />
Elite Eight in the 2006 <strong>NCAA</strong> <strong>Championship</strong> at the Verizon Center. Connecticut trailed by<br />
six, 78-72, with 1:55 to play in regulation after Washington’s Jamaal Williams drilled a<br />
three-pointer. Senior Josh Boone made one of two free throws with 1:16 to go to bring<br />
the <strong>Huskies</strong> within five. After Washington’s Mike Jensen missed a three-pointer, Anderson<br />
swished a three off of a pretty pass from Marcus Williams with 34 seconds remaining<br />
to make the score 78-76 Washington. Justin Dentmon made two free throws for<br />
Washington, but Williams raced the length of the floor and was fouled on his successful<br />
field goal -- and made the ensuing free throw to complete the old-fashioned three-point<br />
play to bring <strong>UConn</strong> to within one with 11 seconds to go. Brandon Roy made two free<br />
throws with 7.9 seconds to go setting up Anderson’s heroics. Connecticut never trailed<br />
in the extra session taking early leads on baskets by Williams and Anderson. Senior<br />
center Hilton Armstrong made several big plays in the overtime period, blocking a Roy<br />
lay-up, hitting a big lay-up with 1:13 to play and swishing two free throws with 24.4<br />
seconds to go. Williams had a spectacular offensive game for <strong>UConn</strong>. He scored a<br />
career-high 26 points and was a perfect 11-for-11 from the line. He also had a gamebest<br />
eight assists. He was joined in double figures by five teammates. Anderson came<br />
off of the bench to score 19 points, making half of his 10 three-point attempts. Senior<br />
Denham Brown and sophomore Rudy Gay each had a dozen points. Gay tallied 11 of is<br />
points in the second half. <strong>UConn</strong> trailed by as many as 11 points in the early going of the<br />
second half, but strung together a 17-6 run over a seven-minute span to tie the score at<br />
57-57 with 11:40 to play in the contest. Anderson was key in the run, hitting back-toback<br />
three’s, while Gay scored six points in the run. Washington took advantage of<br />
another barrage of <strong>UConn</strong> turnovers to start the second half, as six miscues in the first<br />
five minutes of the half led to an eight-point edge. UW led by 11 after scoring the six<br />
points of the half, making the score 51-40, with 18:24 left in regulation. The lead was<br />
eight, 53-45, with 13:48 to go when Roy picked up his third foul and then a double<br />
technical foul with Gay that was Roy’s fourth foul. Roy went to the bench and <strong>UConn</strong><br />
went on its game changing run. <strong>UConn</strong> trailed at the half by a score of 45-40. They<br />
turned the ball over 14 times in the half and hit only 12-of-21 free throws during the<br />
stanza. Washington led by as many as ten points, using an 8-0 spurt in just over a<br />
minute of play to take a 34-28 lead with 6:07 to go in the half. The lead grew to ten<br />
points after a Roy dunk with 3:44 to play that made the score 40-30. Connecticut went<br />
on an 8-2 run to cut the lead to four points, 42-38, with 1:49 until the break and the<br />
teams traded buckets over the final minutes to send UW into the break with a five-point<br />
edge.<br />

Sophomore All-America Rudy Gay scored 19 points and sealed the game with two free<br />
throws with 3.3 seconds remaining as top-seeded Connecticut defeated eighth-seeded<br />
Kentucky, 87-83, to advance to the Sweet 16 round of the Washington Regional of the<br />
2006 <strong>NCAA</strong> <strong>Championship</strong>. Gay and junior point guard Marcus Williams were the catalysts<br />
as the <strong>Huskies</strong> held off a late Kentucky rally. <strong>UConn</strong> led 81-74 with 1:50 to play<br />
after freshman Craig Austrie drove through the Wildcat press for a lay-up. Patrick Sparks,<br />
who was outstanding all game for Kentucky, finishing with 19 of his 28 points after<br />
intermission, drilled a three-pointer to bring Kentucky to within four. After a <strong>UConn</strong> shot<br />
clock violation, Sheray Thomas made a lay-up to bring the Wildcats within a bucket at<br />
81-79 with 52.5 seconds to play. Williams made both free throws after two Kentucky<br />
fouls, sandwiched around a Bobby Perry follow to put <strong>UConn</strong> ahead 83-79, with 29.4 to<br />
play. Perry had another follow hoop, but Gay secured the win with his two charity<br />
tosses. Williams led the <strong>Huskies</strong> with 20 points and eight assists, tallying 16 points in the<br />
second half. He made eight of nine free throws, and continued his streak this season of<br />
not having a game with less than five assists. Gay finished with 19 points and added<br />
four rebounds, three assists and three steals. Three other <strong>Huskies</strong> scored in double<br />
figures as senior Rashad Anderson scored 14 points (all in a frenzied ten-minute stretch<br />
of the first half), as did senior Denham Brown. Kentucky started the second half with a<br />
flourish, scoring the first seven points of the half to cut the <strong>UConn</strong> lead to 43-38 with<br />
18:42 to play. The <strong>Huskies</strong> immediately responded with a 7-2 spurt to get the lead back<br />
to ten, 50-40, with 17:08 to go. The lead was back at 13 points, 58-45, with 13:37 to go<br />
after a Armstrong jumper, but again the Wildcats would respond. Kentucky scored the<br />
next six points, capped by a Sparks lay-up, to make the score 58-51 with 11:16 left in<br />
the game. <strong>UConn</strong> led by 13 points on four different occasions in the first half before<br />
settling for a 43-31 lead at the intermission. The <strong>Huskies</strong> used a 17-4 run to break an 8-<br />
8 tie and forge a 25-12 lead with 10:21 left in the half. Anderson was the key to the<br />
Husky run, hitting four three-pointers in a span of just over five minutes of play. He<br />
finished with 14 points in the half after going scoreless in the first round win over<br />
Albany. <strong>UConn</strong> overcame foul trouble to both big men and held Kentucky to 37.5% from<br />
the field, while shooting 51.5% from the field and turning it over only six times in the<br />
stanza. The Wildcats twice cut the deficit to six points late in the half, the last time on a<br />
Sparks three with 2:55 to go before the break that made the score 35-29 in favor of<br />
<strong>UConn</strong>. The <strong>Huskies</strong> responded with a 6-0 spurt on two Gay free throws and a pair of<br />
buckets by Brown to get the lead back to 12 at 41-29 with just over a minute to play in<br />
the half.<br />

Top-seeded Connecticut used a furious 34-9 rally to end the game, in coming back to<br />
defeat an extremely game 16th-seeded Albany squad, 72-59, in the First Round of the<br />
2006 <strong>NCAA</strong> <strong>Championship</strong> at the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia on March 17. Albany<br />
led for much of the game, and after Connecticut’s Rudy Gay hit the second half’s first<br />
basket, the Great Danes scored the game’s next 13 points to lead 43-33 with 14:26<br />
remaining. Albany extended their lead to 12, at 50-38 with 11:34 to go, but Connecticut,<br />
led by Marcus Williams and Denham Brown, roared back in the game. Junior Josh<br />
Boone started the <strong>Huskies</strong> off with a short jumper, before Williams and Brown combined<br />
to score ten of <strong>UConn</strong>’s next 12 points. The <strong>Huskies</strong> took their first lead since halftime<br />
on Williams straight-away three-pointer with 5:49 to go. Hilton Armstrong made a<br />
three-point play (his first points of the game) with 4:56 remaining, and Williams followed<br />
with another dagger three and the <strong>Huskies</strong> had finally secured the win. <strong>UConn</strong> led<br />
by a score of 31-30 at the half, shooting 65 percent from the field to compensate for<br />
sloppy ball handling that resulted in 11 turnovers. The Great Danes took advantage of<br />
eight Husky turnovers in the first seven minutes and held the lead throughout much of<br />
the early going. <strong>UConn</strong> got on the board first, but Albany responded with a 9-1 run to<br />
take a 9-3 lead into the first media timeout. The <strong>Huskies</strong> responded with a 10-2 run of<br />
their own to take the lead back at 13-11 with 10:07 to go in the frame. The remainder<br />
of the half was a tight affair, with <strong>UConn</strong> never leading by more than three points and<br />
the Great Danes never jumping out by more than one point. By the time the half ended,<br />
it had featured four ties and eight lead changes and the <strong>Huskies</strong> held the one-point<br />
edge. Boone had nine points to lead <strong>UConn</strong>, while Lucious Jordan and Kirsten Zoellner<br />
each had eight to lead Albany, in the opening stanza. The Great Danes were led by<br />
Jamar Wilson, who scored 19 points and had six assists.<br />

Despite giving up a 16 point half time lead, the University of Connecticut<br />
men’s basketball team was able to fend off a valient effort by Central<br />
Florida and advance to the second round of the <strong>NCAA</strong> tournament<br />
by a score of 77-71, Four players scored in double figures for <strong>UConn</strong><br />
led by sophomore Charlie Villanueva with 22 points and freshman Rudy<br />
Gay with 17. Josh Boone also went 4-7 from the field, oming away with<br />
10 points and two blocks. Denham Brown added 11 points and had four<br />
assists. The <strong>Huskies</strong> started the game quickly and held a 15-5 lead with<br />
14:32 left to go as Villanueva scored five of <strong>UConn</strong>’s first 15. The<br />
Knights then cut the lead to four points making it 17-13, as the went on<br />
a mini 8-2 run. That was as close as the would be for the rest of the<br />
first half as <strong>UConn</strong> opened up a 17 point lead, 42-26 in the closing<br />
moment on a Villanueva baseket. <strong>UConn</strong> eventually led by 16 at halftime<br />
-- 47-31. Central Florida did not go away in the second half and<br />
stayed with the <strong>Huskies</strong> the whole way. The knights cut the lead to<br />
under double digits with 4:44 to play on a basket by Kingsley Edwards<br />
to make it 68-60 <strong>Huskies</strong>. <strong>UConn</strong> got the lead back to 10-- 72-62 -- on<br />
a Villanueava basket with 2:10 to go. Williams mae a pair of free throws<br />
for <strong>UConn</strong> with 1:45 to play that made it 74-65 UC but Central Florida<br />
then scored four of the game’s next five points to cut the lead to four<br />
with 11 seconds to play -- the closest the Knights could get. The win<br />
set up a second round match up with No. 10 seed North Carolina State.<br />

the 2004 <strong>NCAA</strong> <strong>Championship</strong> with a 72-55 romp over DePaul in the<br />
Second Round at the HSBC Arena in Buffalo, NY. Okafor notched his 22nd<br />

grabbing down 12 rebounds. His 12 boards also propelled him to become<br />

nine games. Gordon scored 18 points on 3-of-7 shooting from threepoint<br />
range and was 7-for-8 from the free throw line. DePaul missed its<br />
eight first shots of the game allowing <strong>UConn</strong> to jump out to an early 11-<br />
0 lead sparked by five points from Taliek Brown. Connecticut held a lead<br />

Junior guard Ben Gordon scored a game-high 20 points and three other<br />
<strong>Huskies</strong> scored in double-figures as the No. 2 seed University of Connecticut<br />
men's basketball team trounced Vanderbilt 73-53 in Regional<br />
Semifinal action of the <strong>NCAA</strong> Division I Men's Basketball <strong>Championship</strong><br />
in Phoenix, Ariz. The Husky defense neutralized Vanderbilt's all-time<br />
leading scorer Matt Freije in the first half as the senior forward scored<br />
only three points on 1-for-9 shooting including 0-for-4 from behind the<br />
arc, and the <strong>Huskies</strong> built a commanding 45-27 lead at the half. However,<br />
the Commodores would not lie down and mounted an 18-7 run,<br />
which drew the Commodores to within seven, 52-45, with 12:00 minutes<br />
remaining in regulation. Sophomore wing Rashad Anderson answered<br />
with a back-breaking 3-pointer just ten seconds later to spark a<br />
decisive 8-0 Husky run and Vandy was unable to threaten again. Gordon<br />
was one rebound shy of a double-double and also dished out four assists<br />
in the victory. Junior All-American Emeka Okafor dropped in 12<br />
points and snared 10 boards for the 23rd double-double of the season<br />
and 52nd of his illustrious career. Senior point guard Taliek Brown continued<br />
his strong play in the tournament with a 12-point, four-rebound<br />
performance. Anderson was a catalyst to the Husky offense once again,<br />
as he scored 15 points on 5-of-11 shooting. In a 1:40 second span<br />
midway through the first half, Anderson scored eight points as <strong>UConn</strong><br />

CONNECTICUT 87, ALABAMA 71<br />
AMERICA WEST ARENA<br />
PHOENIX, AZ<br />
Regional Most Valuable Player Ben Gordon scored 36 points and sophomore<br />
guard Rashad Anderson added a career-high 28 as the University<br />
of Connecticut men’s basketball team defeated Alabama by an 87-71<br />
score in the final of the Phoenix Regional in the 2004 <strong>NCAA</strong> <strong>Championship</strong><br />
as the <strong>Huskies</strong> advanced to the Final Four in San Antonio. Gordon<br />
was named to the all-regional team along with Anderson and junior<br />
center Emeka Okafor. That team was rounded out by the Alabama duo<br />
of Chuck Davis and Kennedy Winston. Anderson was six-of-nine from<br />
three-point field goal range in the game as his six treys – five of them in<br />
the first half – were a career high. Gordon was four-of-seven from threepoint<br />
range and tied the <strong>UConn</strong> career record for three-pointers made,<br />
which is currently held by Chris Smith with 242 (1989-92). The first six<br />
minutes of the game were evenly played as <strong>UConn</strong>, the second seed in<br />
the region, led by a 10-8 score with 14:04 left to go on a Gordon threepointer.<br />
The <strong>Huskies</strong> opened up their first double-digit lead of the contest<br />
on an Anderson three-pointer that made it 23-13 <strong>UConn</strong> with 11:27<br />
left in the half. Alabama was the eighth seed in the Phoenix region.<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> dominated the rest of the first half as the <strong>Huskies</strong> closed with a<br />
15-2 run that made it 53-29 <strong>Huskies</strong> at halftime – its largest lead of the<br />
game at that time. The 53 points were the most that the Crimson Tide<br />
had surrendered in a first half all season. Alabama could not put a run<br />
together in the second half as <strong>UConn</strong> led by as many as 25 points in the<br />
second stanza.<br />

Junior All-America Emeka Okafor scored all 18 of his points after halftime<br />
and scored five points in a decisive 12-0 run late in the game to<br />
propel the University of Connecticut to a 79-78 victory over Duke in the<br />
2004 <strong>NCAA</strong> national semifinals before a crowd of 44,417 at the<br />
Alamodome. The <strong>Huskies</strong> trailed 75-67, with 3:28 to play after Duke’s<br />
Chris Duhon made a pair of free throws and continued to trail by eight<br />
as Okafor missed the front end of a one-and-one with 3:15 left to play.<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> then began their game-winning streak as sophomore guard<br />
Rashad Anderson made a three-pointer with 2:40 left to play. On<br />
Connecticut’s next possession, Duhon fouled Gordon, and Gordon responded<br />
by connecting on both free throws, to make it 75-72 Duke with<br />
2:07 to go. Okafor then scored five of the <strong>Huskies</strong>’ final seven points of<br />
the game including a short jumper with 1:18 to play and then a lay-up<br />
with 26.2 seconds to play giving <strong>UConn</strong> it’s first lead since midway through<br />
the first half. Anderson made two free throws with 11.6 seconds to play,<br />
and Okafor iced the win with one of two free throws with 3.2 seconds to<br />
play. Anderson finished with 14 points and freshman power forward<br />
Josh Boone scored nine points and yanked down a game-high 14 rebounds.<br />
The <strong>Huskies</strong>, who had won their first four tournament games<br />
by an average of 17.5 points per contest, again stormed out of the<br />
gates quickly. <strong>UConn</strong> led 15-4 six minutes into the game as freshman<br />
forward Charlie Villaneuva hit a three-pointer with 15:11 to go and a<br />
layup with 14:05 to go to give <strong>UConn</strong> its biggest lead.<br />

Junior Emeka Okafor scored 24 points and junior guard Ben Gordon<br />
added 21 as the University of Connecticut won its second <strong>NCAA</strong> championship<br />
in men’s basketball with an 82-73 victory over Georgia Tech<br />
before a crowd of 44,468 at the Alamodome.Okafor, named the Final<br />
Four’s Most Outstanding Player, was dominant inside against the Yellow<br />
Jackets making 10 of 17 field goal attempts and yanking 15 rebounds.<br />
He was joined on the 2004 <strong>NCAA</strong> Final Four team by teammates Gordon<br />
and sophomore guard Rashad Anderson and by Georgia Tech’s Luke<br />
Schenscher and Will Bynum. The <strong>Huskies</strong> steadily built their lead throughout<br />
the first half -- outscoring Georgia Tech, 30-14, over the half’s final<br />
13 minutes. <strong>UConn</strong> was able to increase its 41-26 halftime lead to as<br />
many as 25, at 58-33, during the second half. <strong>UConn</strong> continued its<br />
pattern of jumping out to quick leads throughout the 2004 <strong>NCAA</strong> Tournament,<br />
leading 9-4 as Anderson and Gordon hit three-pointers just<br />
3:35 into the contest, but Georgia Tech inched back to take their only<br />
lead of the game of 12-11 with 13:41 to play before intermission on a<br />
basket by Clarence Moore. Okafor scored to give <strong>UConn</strong> the lead right<br />
back less than a minute later and the <strong>Huskies</strong> never trailed again. Since<br />
the <strong>NCAA</strong> tournament bracket expanded to 64 teams in 1985, Connecticut<br />
becomes just the third school – joining Kentucky and Duke – to win<br />
multiple championships. The victory gives <strong>UConn</strong> head coach Jim Calhoun<br />
a 35-14 record all-time in <strong>NCAA</strong> tournament games – including a 32-9<br />
record at <strong>UConn</strong>.<br />

The victory improves Head Coach Jim Calhoun’s record in <strong>NCAA</strong> first<br />
round games to a remarkable 11-0 at <strong>UConn</strong> and enhances Connecticut’s<br />
record to 22-9 on the year while BYU finishes the season at 23-9. With<br />
the game tied, 26-26, at the half, <strong>UConn</strong> looked to put BYU away early<br />
in the second half. The <strong>Huskies</strong> scored the first four points of the second<br />
half and mounted a 20-6 run capped off by a Ben Gordon threepointer<br />
at the 11:50 mark to take their largest lead of the game at 46-<br />
32. The Cougars answered the bell as they held <strong>UConn</strong> scoreless for the<br />
next 4:30 and put-together a 9-0 run to shrink the Husky lead to five at<br />
46-41. BYU stepped up the defensive intensity, holding the <strong>Huskies</strong> without<br />
a field goal for 10:43 and crept to within two points, 50-48, with<br />
2:16 left in the contest. Gordon broke the drought with a floater in the<br />
lane at the 1:07 mark to put the <strong>Huskies</strong> up six, and <strong>UConn</strong> was able to<br />
hold on with solid free-throw shooting in the second half making 14-of-<br />
18 attempts in the final period. <strong>UConn</strong> enjoyed an excellent defensive<br />
stretch, limiting the Cougars to ten points in the final 8:04 of the first<br />
half and the first 3:45 of the second half. <strong>UConn</strong>’s overall defensive<br />
effort was decisive, holding BYU to just 11.8% shooting from beyond<br />
the arc (2-for-17) and 31.3% for the game (20-for-64).<br />

With the triumph, <strong>UConn</strong> advances to the Sweet 16 for the ninth time in<br />
eleven <strong>NCAA</strong> Tournament appearances under Head Coach Jim Calhoun<br />
and improves to 23-9 on the season while Stanford finishes its season<br />
at 24-9. Stanford led at halftime by a 44-40 count and the <strong>Huskies</strong> took<br />
the lead for the first time in the second half when Ben Gordon connected<br />
on a three pointer with 16:56 left to play, making it, 49-47,<br />
<strong>Huskies</strong>. Stanford then opened up a three point lead on two different<br />
occasions, but the <strong>Huskies</strong> took the lead for good, 58-56, on Emeka<br />
Okafor's jumper with 13:25 remaining. The <strong>Huskies</strong> played particularly<br />
well when Okafor went to the bench with his fourth personal foul with<br />
6:05 left in the contest. The <strong>Huskies</strong> led by six when Okafor was whistled<br />
for his fourth, and increased that lead for the rest of the game. Joining<br />
Okafor and Gordon in double-figures for <strong>UConn</strong> were a pair of guards<br />
that came off the bench-Tony Robertson with 11 points and Rashad<br />
Anderson with 10. <strong>UConn</strong> played outstanding defense in the second<br />
half, limiting the Cardinal to 39.3% shooting (11-for-28) after Stanford<br />

TEXAS 82, CONNECTICUT 78<br />
ALAMODOME<br />
SAN ANTONIO, TX<br />
The two teams went blow-for-blow in the first ten minutes of the first<br />
half as the score was tied on three separate occasions and the lead<br />
changed hands a remarkable nine times. Texas took a six point lead<br />
with 9:10 remaining on a three by Byron Mouton, making the score 24-<br />
18. <strong>UConn</strong> pulled to within four with 5:20 to go in the half at, 30-26,<br />
but Texas put together a 7-2 run for the remainder of the stanza to<br />
head into the locker room holding a 37-28 advantage. With 15:50 remaining<br />
in the game, <strong>UConn</strong> found itself down, 54-46, but matters<br />
worsened as the Longhorns went on an eight-to-two run over the next<br />
2:35 to take a commanding 62-48 lead with 12:30 to go in the contest.<br />
The <strong>Huskies</strong> would rally though, mounting a 17-5 run over the next<br />
4:10 to pull to within two points of the Longhorns, 67-65, with under<br />
eight minutes left. Ben Gordon drained a clutch three-pointer at the<br />
5:21 mark to give <strong>UConn</strong> its first lead, 74-71, since the 12:30 mark of<br />
the first half. With 48 seconds left in the season, and the <strong>Huskies</strong> down,<br />
78-76, Taliek Brown found Marcus White under the hoop. His attempt<br />
was blocked and pinned in between the rim and the backboard. The<br />
possession arrow pointed towards Texas and <strong>UConn</strong> would get no closer<br />
the rest of the way, as Texas hit its final six free-throw attempts.<br />

as junior guard Khalid El-Amin sustained a high right ankle sprain<br />
with 3:57 left in the second half and <strong>UConn</strong> leading 65-54. El-Amin and<br />
junior Albert Mouring led Connecticut with 14 points apiece while senior<br />
co-captain Kevin Freeman chipped in with 13 and freshman Tony<br />
Robertson came off the Husky bench to score 10. The win improved<br />

BIRMINGHAM JEFFERSON CC<br />
BIRMINGHAM, AL<br />
No. 4 seed Tennessee took advantage of an injury to Connecticut junior<br />
point guard Khalid El-Amin and handed No. 5 seed <strong>UConn</strong> a 65-51 <strong>NCAA</strong><br />
Second Round setback at the Birmingham-Jefferson Civic Center Arena.<br />
El-Amin, who sustained a right ankle sprain two days earlier in <strong>NCAA</strong><br />
First Round play, attempted to contribute but was noticeably hobbled,<br />
scoring just three points in 13 minutes of game action. With its leading<br />
scorer and floor general watching most of the game on the sidelines,<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> was unable to keep pace with the talented Vols. Tennessee built<br />
a 32-22 halftime lead and the closest <strong>UConn</strong> got in the final 10 minutes<br />
was a nine-point deficit, 43-34, with 9:55 left to play. Junior Albert Mouring<br />
led <strong>UConn</strong> with 17 points while senior co-captain Kevin Freeman scored<br />
14. <strong>UConn</strong> closed out its 1999-2000 season with a 25-10 record.<br />

game with 20 or more, to lift West Region champion Connecticut<br />
over South Region winner Ohio State 64-58 and into the National<br />

crowd of 41,340 at the Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, FL. Hamilton<br />
was joined in double figures by sophomore Khalid El-Amin, who had 18<br />
points and also dished out six assists. Senior Ricky Moore again proved<br />
to be a huge factor defensively, holding vaunted Ohio State guard Scoonie<br />
The <strong>Huskies</strong> mob Richard Hamilton after his<br />
1998 game-winner vs. Washington<br />
Penn to just eleven points on 3-13 shooting from the field. <strong>UConn</strong> never<br />
trailed in the second half after holding a slim, one-point halftime lead at<br />
36-35. The <strong>Huskies</strong> opened the second half with a 15-6 run that created<br />
a 51-41 advantage with just under twelve minutes to play. The Buckeyes<br />
made a run but were unable to get closer than three the rest of the<br />
way. The win set a new single season victory record for the <strong>Huskies</strong> at<br />

CONNECTICUT 77, DUKE 74<br />
TROPICANA FIELD<br />
ST. PETERSBURG, FL<br />
West Region winner Connecticut defeated East Region champs Duke<br />
77-74 in a game that saw 14 ties and eight lead changes to give the<br />
<strong>Huskies</strong> a national championship in the school’s first ever visit to the<br />
Final Four. The <strong>Huskies</strong> came back from a halftime deficit for the tenth<br />
time during the season without a loss, trailing 39-37 at the intermission<br />
in this case. Senior Ricky Moore kept the <strong>Huskies</strong> in the game during<br />
the first half, scoring all 13 of his points in his most explosive offensive<br />
half of the season. All American Richard Hamilton and sophomore Khalid<br />
El-Amin both picked up the slack in the second half, Hamilton scoring<br />
16 of his game-high 27 points and El-Amin 10 of his 12. The <strong>Huskies</strong><br />
managed to shoot 52.5% from the field for the game, one of just two<br />
teams to top the 50% mark against Duke during the whole year. The<br />
stifling <strong>UConn</strong> defense held the prolific Duke offense to just 41.1%<br />
shooting, the lowest mark in the 39-game season for the Blue Devils.<br />
The <strong>Huskies</strong> once again pulled away after facing a 53-53 deadlock,<br />
never trailing again after grabbing a 55-53 edge. The <strong>Huskies</strong> fittingly<br />
sealed the victory with a defensive stop by Moore on Duke guard Trajan<br />
Langdon, who dribbled the ball off his knee as time expired. The <strong>Huskies</strong><br />
finished the season with a 34-2 record. Hamilton was named the<br />
Most Outstanding Player at the Final Four and was joined on the All<br />
Final-Four team by teammates Khalid El-Amin and Ricky Moore.<br />

Head Coach JIM CALHOUN<br />
22nd Season at Connecticut<br />
Now in his 22nd season as head coach at the University of<br />
Connecticut and his 36th year as a collegiate head coach, Jim<br />
Calhoun has unquestionably stood the test of time in establishing<br />
himself as perhaps the greatest program builder in college<br />
basketball history.<br />
Jim Calhoun’s coaching success story includes winning two<br />
<strong>NCAA</strong> National <strong>Championship</strong>s (1999, 2004) at Connecticut,<br />
passing the elite 700-win plateau, and earning basketball’s highest<br />
honor, election into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame<br />
as a member of the Class of 2005. Coach Calhoun is also a member<br />
of the Founding Class of the National Collegiate Basketball Hall<br />
of Fame, announced in November of 2006.<br />
The beginning of what has become one of college basketball’s<br />
greatest coaching achievements—transforming the University of<br />
Connecticut into one of the nation’s elite programs—was launched<br />
in May of 1986 when Jim Calhoun was named head coach.<br />
More than twenty years later, <strong>UConn</strong> Basketball sits atop the<br />
college basketball landscape with a pair of <strong>NCAA</strong> National<br />
<strong>Championship</strong>s, an NIT <strong>Championship</strong>, recognition as the most<br />
successful program in the history of the Big East Conference with<br />
a record-setting 16 league titles, and annual acknowledgement<br />
as one of America’s truly outstanding college programs.<br />
In addition, the Connecticut Basketball program is now led by<br />
a Hall of Fame coach.<br />
In September of 2005, with some 60 of his former players in<br />
attendance, Jim Calhoun’s four decade body of work as one of<br />
college basketball’s greatest coaches was formally rewarded when<br />
the <strong>UConn</strong> coach was enshrined as a coach into the Basketball<br />
Hall of Fame.<br />
In April of 2004, Jim Calhoun cemented his place among the<br />
all-time collegiate coaching greats and as a future member of<br />
the Hall of Fame by leading <strong>UConn</strong> to the 2004 national title. In<br />
directing Connecticut to its second <strong>NCAA</strong> National <strong>Championship</strong><br />
in a six-year span, Jim Calhoun became, at the time, only the<br />
second coach to win multiple <strong>NCAA</strong> titles since the tournament<br />
field expanded to 64 teams in 1985.<br />
On March 2, 2005, Jim Calhoun joined an elite club, becoming<br />
one of only 19 coaches in <strong>NCAA</strong> Division I basketball history to<br />
reach the 700-win plateau when <strong>UConn</strong> beat Georgetown, 83-64.<br />
Within a six-day period in April 2005, Jim Calhoun was honored<br />
with two career awards. On April 4, 2005, the Naismith Memorial<br />
Basketball Hall of Fame introduced Coach Calhoun as a Class of<br />
2005 Hall of Fame enshrinee. On April 9, 2005, Coach Calhoun<br />
became just the seventh recipient of the prestigious John R. Wooden<br />
“Legends of Coaching Award” presented by the Los Angeles Athletic<br />
Club. Previous winners of the award include Hall of Fame coaches<br />
Dean Smith, Mike Krzyzewski and Lute Olson.<br />
In his 36th season as a head coach on the <strong>NCAA</strong> Division I<br />
collegiate level, Jim Calhoun’s overall collegiate head coaching<br />
record is 774-336. That includes a 248-137 record in 14 seasons<br />
as head coach at Northeastern (MA) University and a 526-199 mark<br />
in his 22nd season at Connecticut.<br />
In his time at Connecticut, Jim Calhoun has compiled a stunning<br />
48-15 overall record in national postseason tournament competition<br />
(36-11 in <strong>NCAA</strong> play, 12-4 in NIT play). His 36 <strong>NCAA</strong> wins at <strong>UConn</strong>,<br />
all achieved since 1990, far outdistances the entire total of four<br />
<strong>NCAA</strong> victories recorded at Connecticut before Coach Calhoun took<br />
over the Husky basketball program in the spring of 1986.<br />
Including the 2007-08 season, Jim Calhoun has led <strong>UConn</strong> to<br />
15 <strong>NCAA</strong> bids in the past 19 years. Under Coach Calhoun’s direction,<br />
<strong>UConn</strong> has never lost a <strong>NCAA</strong> First Round game and <strong>UConn</strong> is a<br />
stunning 25-3 in <strong>NCAA</strong> First and Second Round competition since<br />
1990. The <strong>Huskies</strong> have earned 11 <strong>NCAA</strong> Sweet 16 berths in the<br />
past 18 years, seven Elite Eight appearances, two <strong>NCAA</strong> Final Four<br />
trips and two National <strong>Championship</strong>s.<br />
Under Coach Calhoun, <strong>UConn</strong> has captured 16 BIG EAST<br />
<strong>Championship</strong>s, ten regular season crowns and six tournament<br />
titles. The <strong>Huskies</strong> are 28-16 in BIG EAST Tournament play under<br />
Calhoun.<br />
Even before capturing the 2004 <strong>NCAA</strong> title, Connecticut<br />
basketball under head coach Jim Calhoun had achieved a unique<br />
“double”, winning the 1999 <strong>NCAA</strong> Division I National <strong>Championship</strong>s<br />
as well as the 1988 National Invitation Tournament (NIT)<br />
<strong>Championship</strong>.<br />
When he arrived at Connecticut as the 17th head coach of men’s<br />
basketball on May 15, 1986, Jim Calhoun immediately began to<br />

Head Coach JIM CALHOUN, page 2<br />
chart a new course for success. He promised to “do it<br />
the right way, with no short cuts”. He noted he wanted<br />
to establish a program at <strong>UConn</strong> that would annually<br />
be called one of the top programs in the nation.<br />
Mission accomplished.<br />
One collegiate basketball writer, authoring an article<br />
on Connecticut basketball for a national publication, said<br />
it best when he noted, “Bringing the <strong>UConn</strong> program to<br />
this point from where it was when he took over is nothing<br />
short of miraculous”.<br />
Jim Calhoun ranks No. 9 all-time in <strong>NCAA</strong> career<br />
victories with 39 (36-11 at Connecticut, 3-5 at<br />
Northeastern). Coach Calhoun is 39-16 in overall <strong>NCAA</strong><br />
play (with two <strong>NCAA</strong> titles).<br />
Jim Calhoun’s overall career record for national<br />
postseason tournament competition is a remarkable 51-<br />
20 (39-16 in <strong>NCAA</strong> play, 12-4 in NIT play). He has<br />
coached in the <strong>NCAA</strong> Tournament 19 times and in the<br />
NIT five times (including winning the 1988 NIT title).<br />
Much like his success at Connecticut, Jim Calhoun’s<br />
performance as head coach at Northeastern (MA)<br />
University in Boston for 14 seasons was nothing short<br />
of sensational. He developed a program from Division<br />
II status to a nationally-recognized squad which became<br />
a perennial <strong>NCAA</strong> Division I tournament team. At NU,<br />
Jim Calhoun won 20 or more games in five of his last<br />
six seasons, chalked up a brilliant 135-47 record during<br />
that span, and earned five <strong>NCAA</strong> Division I tournament<br />
berths.<br />
His final three years at Northeastern resulted in <strong>NCAA</strong><br />
automatic bids each season and a three-year mark of<br />
75-19.<br />
At Northeastern, Jim Calhoun’s teams averaged 17.9<br />
wins per season. He was a three-time New England<br />
“Coach of the Year” and a three-time Kodak District I<br />
“Coach of the Year”.<br />
In leaving Northeastern in 1986, Coach Calhoun left<br />
perhaps the most talented team in the school’s history,<br />
along with a first round NBA draft pick in senior Reggie<br />
Lewis, who later became captain of the Boston Celtics<br />
before his untimely death during the summer of 1993.<br />
As was the case at Northeastern, Jim Calhoun’s<br />
success at producing top-flight collegiate stars, who also<br />
excel at the professional basketball level, is an annual<br />
happening at Connecticut. A total of 24 former <strong>UConn</strong><br />
stars that played for Coach Calhoun have been part of<br />
the National Basketball Association (NBA). They include:<br />
Clifford Robinson (New Jersey Nets/Golden State<br />
Warriors/Detroit Pistons/Phoenix Suns/Portland Trail<br />
Blazers), Tate George (New Jersey Nets), Chris Smith<br />
(Minnesota Timberwolves), Scott Burrell (New Jersey<br />
Nets/Chicago Bulls/Charlotte Hornets), Donyell Marshall<br />
(Seattle Sonics/Cleveland Cavaliers/Toronto Raptors/<br />
Chicago Bulls/Utah Jazz/Golden State Warriors), Donny<br />
Marshall (New Jersey Nets/Cleveland Cavaliers), Kevin<br />
Ollie (Philadelphia 76ers/Cleveland Cavaliers/Seattle<br />
Sonics/Milwaukee Bucks/Indiana Pacers/Chicago Bulls/<br />
New Jersey Nets/Orlando Magic/Sacramento Kings/<br />
Dallas Mavericks), Ray Allen (Boston Celtics/Seattle<br />
Sonics/Milwaukee Bucks), Travis Knight (New York<br />
Knicks/Boston Celtics/Los Angeles Lakers), Doron<br />
Sheffer (Los Angeles Clippers), Richard Hamilton (Detroit<br />
Pistons/Washington Wizards), Khalid El-Amin (Chicago<br />
Bulls/Dallas Mavericks/Miami Heat), Jake Voskuhl<br />
(Milwaukee Bucks/Charlotte Bobcats/Phoenix Suns/<br />
Chicago Bulls), Kevin Freeman (New Jersey Nets), Ricky<br />
Moore (Charlotte Hornets/Detroit Pistons), Caron Butler<br />
(Washington Wizards/Los Angeles Lakers/Miami Heat),<br />
Emeka Okafor (Charlotte Bobcats), Ben Gordon (Chicago<br />
Bulls), Charlie Villanueva (Milwaukee Bucks/Toronto<br />
Raptors), Hilton Armstrong (New Orleans/Oklahoma City<br />
Hornets), Josh Boone (New Jersey Nets), Denham<br />
Brown (Seattle Sonics), Rudy Gay (Memphis Grizzlies)<br />
and Marcus Williams (New Jersey Nets).<br />
Thirteen of those Connecticut stars are listed on NBA<br />
regular season rosters in 2007-08, more than any other<br />
school in the country. For the past two seasons, Ray<br />
Allen, Richard Hamilton and Caron Butler all appeared<br />
in the NBA All-Star Game. <strong>UConn</strong> was the only college<br />
in the nation represented by three players in those<br />
contests. This was the third straight season the<br />
University of Connecticut was represented in the NBA<br />
All-Star game by multiple former Husky standouts. Allen<br />
has now been an all-star eight times in his career,<br />
Hamilton three times and Butler twice. Three <strong>UConn</strong><br />
players have also been members of NBA <strong>Championship</strong><br />
teams (Scott Burrell with the Chicago Bulls in 1998,<br />
Travis Knight with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2000,<br />
Richard Hamilton with the Detroit Pistons in 2004).<br />
A former All-New England player at American<br />
International College in Springfield, MA, Jim Calhoun<br />
graduated from AIC in 1968 with a Bachelor of Arts<br />
Degree in Sociology. At AIC, he lettered three years while<br />
leading the Yellow Jacket basketball team in scoring as<br />
a junior and senior. He captained his alma mater in his<br />
senior year and left the school as the fourth all-time<br />
leading scorer along with helping the school earn an<br />
<strong>NCAA</strong> Division II playoff berth. He is a member of the<br />
AIC Athletic Hall of Fame and in the summer of 1994<br />
earned the prestigious distinction of being elected to<br />
serve as a member of the American International College<br />
Board of Trustees. In the spring of 2000, Jim Calhoun<br />
served as the main commencement speaker at AIC’s<br />
115th graduation exercises and received an honorary<br />
degree from his alma mater.<br />
Jim Calhoun began his coaching career at AIC, serving<br />
as an assistant basketball coach from 1966-68. After<br />
one year as head coach of basketball at Old Lyme High<br />
School in Connecticut, and one year as head coach of<br />
Westport High School in Westport, MA, Jim Calhoun<br />
moved on to become head coach at Dedham High School<br />
in Massachusetts. He quickly rebuilt the program,<br />
fashioning a 21-1 record in 1971-72 and seeing his club<br />
advance to the State Division I semi-finals.<br />
In October of 1972, he moved into the collegiate<br />
coaching ranks at Northeastern University in Boston. In<br />
the years to follow, the Northeastern <strong>Huskies</strong> would<br />
dominate the ECAC North Atlantic Conference under his<br />
guidance. Northeastern won the league’s regular season<br />
championship four times and shared the top spot two<br />
other times in seven years of conference play. NU also<br />
won five of the seven league tournaments and Coach<br />
Calhoun’s record against conference competition in his<br />
career at NU was 74-13. While at Northeastern, he was<br />
inducted into the NU Sports Hall of Fame.<br />
In addition to his busy schedule as head coach of<br />
the Connecticut basketball program, Jim Calhoun and<br />
his family are heavily involved in a number of regional<br />
and national charitable and educational efforts.<br />
In November of 1998, Jim Calhoun and his wife Pat<br />
began a wide- ranging commitment to the cardiology<br />
program at the University of Connecticut Health Center,<br />
establishing the Calhoun Cardiology Research Fund with<br />
a $125,000 gift. In 1999, the Jim Calhoun Celebrity<br />
Classic Golf Tournament was launched and during the<br />
past eight years more than $2.75 million has been raised<br />
in support of the Jim and Pat Calhoun Cardiology<br />
Research Endowment Fund.<br />
In recognition of the dedication and commitment of<br />
Jim Calhoun and his family to cardiology research, the<br />
entire cardiology program at the University of<br />
Connecticut Health Center has been named the “Pat<br />
and Jim Calhoun Cardiology Center”. A formal naming<br />
ceremony recognizing the on-going work of the Calhoun<br />
family was held in the spring of 2004.<br />
In 2006, Jim and Pat Calhoun became actively<br />
involved with raising public awareness and research<br />
funding for Autism Speaks. The effort seeks to expand<br />
services for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders<br />
(ADS) and their families.<br />
Since 1999, the Jim Calhoun Holiday Food Drive has<br />
supported food assistance agencies that serve the State<br />
of Connecticut. Nearly $1 million has been raised to help<br />
families in need throughout Connecticut and the food<br />
drive culminates each year with Jim Calhoun, his family,<br />
and his players personally delivering meals to hundreds<br />
of families in the Hartford area.<br />
In both 2003 and 2004, Jim Calhoun served as<br />
celebrity host of Coaches versus Cancer events called<br />
“Hoops For Hope”. The black-tie galas raised in excess<br />
of $400,000 for the American Cancer Society.<br />
In June of 2007, The Big Y Jim Calhoun Cancer<br />
Challenge Ride celebrated its first year as an annual<br />
statewide event to benefit The Carole and Ray Neag<br />
Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of<br />
Connecticut Health Center and Coaches vs. Cancer, a<br />
program established in 1993 by the American Cancer<br />
Society. The ride raised over $225,000 in the fight against<br />
cancer.<br />
For the past 13 years, Jim Calhoun has served as<br />
Honorary Chairman of the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation,<br />
helping generate in excess of $4.5 million to fund<br />
diabetes research.<br />
Jim and Pat Calhoun have a long-standing<br />
involvement with the Franciscan Life Center, counseling<br />
and education center operated in Meriden, CT by the<br />
Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist. The Calhoun family<br />
has been involved annually in fund-raising activities by<br />
the Franciscan Sisters. Jim Calhoun has been honored<br />
with the “Saint Francis Award” for his dedication to<br />
Christian values and outstanding athletic achievements<br />
and in 1998 the Franciscan Sisters dedicated an outdoor<br />
basketball area, “Calhoun’s Court”, in honor of the <strong>UConn</strong><br />
head coach at the Franciscan Life Center in Meriden.<br />
Coach Calhoun has also served as an Honorary<br />
Chairperson/Director for several other charitable<br />
programs including the Ronald McDonald House Kids<br />
Classic Golf Tournament, the Ray of Hope Foundation<br />
Golf Tournament, the Connecticut Children’s Medical<br />
Center and Children’s Miracle Network, and the<br />
“Character Counts” program in the state of Connecticut.<br />
In 2004, Jim Calhoun was the first recipient of an<br />
award by the Swim Across The Sound Prostate Cancer<br />
Institute and he now serves as the Honorary Chairman<br />
for that group’s fund-raising efforts.<br />
In October of 2005, the University of Connecticut<br />
Alumni Association recognized Jim Calhoun’s two<br />
decades of outstanding contributions at <strong>UConn</strong> by<br />
honoring Coach Calhoun with its “Honorary Alumni<br />
Award”.<br />
In the fall of 1999, Jim Calhoun completed work on a<br />
book. “Dare To Dream-Connecticut Basketball’s<br />
Remarkable March To The National <strong>Championship</strong>” is a<br />
first person account by Coach Calhoun of his life as a<br />
college coach with specific focus on the 1998-99 season.<br />
Working with Coach Calhoun on the book was Leigh<br />
Montville, a former senior writer at Sports Illustrated<br />
and a <strong>UConn</strong> graduate.<br />
A graduate of Braintree (MA) High School, Jim<br />
Calhoun was a three-sport letter winner in football,<br />
basketball and baseball. As a senior captain, he earned<br />
All-Bay State League honors in football and basketball.<br />
His hometown of Braintree has bestowed a singular<br />
honor on Coach Calhoun, naming outdoor basketball<br />
courts in a city facility “Calhoun Park”. He continues to<br />
return to Braintree to speak and conduct basketball<br />
clinics for area youths.<br />
Born May 10, 1942 in Braintree, MA, Jim Calhoun<br />
and his wife Pat live in Pomfret, Connecticut. They have<br />
two sons, James and Jeffrey. James and his wife Jennifer<br />
live in Pasadena, California with daughters, Emily (born<br />

at Connecticut<br />
George Blaney, a 2003 inductee in the New England<br />
Basketball Hall of Fame, is in his seventh season as a member<br />
of the Connecticut basketball staff in the 2007-08 season. He<br />
was named the Associate Head Coach in July of 2007.<br />
Blaney brings to the Connecticut staff more than 30 years<br />
of coaching experience. He was an All-New England college<br />
basketball standout at Holy Cross, scoring 1,012 points in his<br />
college career and leading the Crusaders to back-to-back 20-<br />
win seasons before graduating in 1961. Blaney was a fourth<br />
round selection of the New York Knicks in the 1961 NBA Draft<br />
and played during the 1961-62 season with the Knicks.<br />
In May of 2007, Blaney received the Saint Francis Award<br />
at the Franciscan Sports Banquet sponsored by the Franciscan<br />
Life Center of Meriden, Conn. The award is given to an<br />
individual who exemplifies commitment and dedication to<br />
athletics, family, community and church.<br />
Blaney began his coaching career as head coach at Hudson<br />
Catholic High School in Jersey City, NJ in 1965. He moved into<br />
the college coaching ranks two years later when he was named<br />
head coach at Stonehill (MA) College. After two seasons at<br />
Stonehill, Blaney spent three years as head coach at Dartmouth<br />
College before returning to his alma mater and coaching the<br />
Holy Cross program for the next 22 years.<br />
While directing the Holy Cross program, Blaney led the<br />
Crusaders to three <strong>NCAA</strong> tournament berths, five invitations to<br />
the NIT, and a 357-276 overall record. Holy Cross posted seven<br />
20-win seasons during Blaney’s tenure as head coach.<br />
In 1994, George Blaney joined the BIG EAST Conference<br />
and spent three seasons as head coach at Seton Hall. He<br />
departed the college coaching ranks to become Vice President<br />
of Basketball Operations for the International Basketball League<br />
in 1998. He remained in that post for two years before joining<br />
the University of Rhode Island as an assistant coach during the<br />
2000-2001 season.<br />
In 30 seasons as a collegiate head coach, Blaney posted an<br />
impressive overall record of 459-382.<br />

Assistant<br />
Coach<br />
ANDRE<br />
LaFLEUR<br />
7th Season<br />
at Connecticut<br />
Andre LaFleur is in his seventh year on the <strong>UConn</strong> Basketball<br />
staff in 2007-08 and his fourth season as an assistant coach. He<br />
spent three seasons as the Director of Basketball Operations<br />
before moving into the assistant coaching role beginning with<br />
the 2004-05 campaign.<br />
LaFleur is a graduate of Northeastern University where he<br />
was one of the nation’s premier point guards. A native of Los<br />
Angeles and a product of Governor Dummer Academy in South<br />
Byfield, Mass., he was a prime recruit for then-Northeastern<br />
head coach Jim Calhoun in a class that included Wes Fuller and<br />
Reggie Lewis.<br />
The impact of that freshman class at Northeastern was<br />
instantaneous. The <strong>Huskies</strong> romped through their conference<br />
schedule with a perfect 14-0 mark and an overall record of 27-<br />
5. They won the ECAC North Atlantic title and went on to the<br />
<strong>NCAA</strong> Tournament. This pattern continued throughout his<br />
career as every year the <strong>Huskies</strong> won the league crown and<br />
went on to the <strong>NCAA</strong>s. From the 1983-84 season through<br />
LaFleur’s senior year of 1986-87, the team boasted a conference<br />
record of 60-6 and an overall record of 102-26. During one<br />
