In less than three weeks, UConn women’s basketball will officially begin its 2020-21 campaign against Quinnipiac at Mohegan Sun, which will put an end to one of the longest offseasons in program history — both literally and figuratively.
UConn’s season ended earlier than expected and will begin later than usual. During the time in between, a global pandemic shut down the United States, social justice protests spread throughout the country, and plenty of other noteworthy events occurred, making the last six months sometimes feel like six years.
So in order to properly look back on the Huskies’ offseason, we need to go all the way back to March — when the coronavirus ended UConn’s 2019-20 season.
