Hurley admitted that the defeat from 77 to 75 years old was one of the most difficult in her career. During the offseason, he examined if he could continue at the same implacable pace, but he is back more motivated than ever. For him, this year is to rewrite the end and prove that Uconn still establishes the standard for university basketball.
