“A History of Huskies Hoops: Legacy of Greatness” celebrates the history and greatness of the UConn basketball teams. It’s a fun, lively and enlightening presentation, hosted by award-winning sportswriter and author Marty Gitlin.
Take a journey from the beginning of the men’s and women’s programs to the present with video highlights of their greatest teams, players and events from the turn of the twentieth century to today. Gitlin will talk about and show the moments these incredible teams turned dreams into national championships, as well as those whose seasons ended in disappointment.
The best of the best will also be featured here, including legendary coaches Jim Calhoun and Geno Auriemma, and superstars such as Art Quimby, Walt Dropo, Diana Taurasi, Rebecca Lobo, Richard Hamilton, Sue Bird, Ray Allen, Kemba Walker, Emeka Okafor and Maya Moore. The presentation will feature fun trivia questions for patrons to ponder and answer. The program will be followed by a Q&A.
