No basketball program has won more games in the Jimmy V Classic than UConn and even though Sunday's game against Texas at Mohegan Sun Arena will mark the sixth season in a row that the Huskies will be playing in the women's Jimmy V Classic, the meaning of the game and the event is not lost on the UConn players.
"Playing games like the Jimmy V Classic is just phenomenal, to raise awareness and do it by doing something that you love is always something we are fortunate to be a part of," UConn junior guard Kia Nurse said.
