Despite the long, escalating, melancholic year that 2020 has been, it has been the exact opposite for the UH women’s basketball team.
Since the summer when the University hosted a series of Zoom conferences with fans, head coach Ron Hughey and his team has spread that this season will be a redemption tour after a 12-19 campaign in 2019-20.
One of the key reasons for UH’s optimism is because of freshman guard Laila Blair, who along with a plethora of other new faces, will wear a Houston jersey for the first time this season, and last Wednesday, Hughey gave her as high of praise he possibly could.
