Tamba, Florida – no coach has won the NCAA basketball titles more than the 11 -year -old Jino Orima, who is 11 years old. But he caused it in 2016, and he had some painful losses in the four finals since then.
However, I went to the thirteenth NCAA championship match in his twenty -fourth, Urima said that the difficult defeats themselves do not disturb him as much as some of the options he made in those games. He hopes to push all the right buttons when facing South Carolina on Sunday (3 pm Eastern time, ABC).
“I lost four team’s final for my team than they have, because the coaches are making decisions about what to do with their team,” Urima said on Saturday. “And if you make the right decision, you win.”
The Huskies team won four consecutive titles from NCAA behind the star Breanna Stewart from 2013 to 2016. In 2017 and 2018, Uconn lost two points in additional time in the national semi -finals to the bell shots made by Morgan William from the Mississippi state, and Nenteradam, respectively.
“I do not look at these two explosive frustrations,” said Orima. “I would like to get two decisions in these two matches, which I think relate to our loss more than these two gards.
This is the frustration that he brought out from that: “Why do you continue to encourage these men? “
Auriemma did not specify the decisions he made. But he admitted that coaches often could not be completely sure whether the decision is right or wrong until they see the result.
In 2019, the Huskies team lost to Notre Dame in the national semi -finals, at five points. The loss of 10 points to Arizona, the weak in the 2021 national semi -finals, was one of the largest surprising UConn defeats.
In 2022, Huskies faced South Carolina in the title game; Uconn was slightly weak, and the Paccis injuries and its diseases became more than that. South Carolina took control of 64-49.
Uconn Paij Bueckers has suffered from a knee injury in the summer of 2022 and did not play in the 2023 NCAA championship, when the Huskies series was broken in making 14 four consecutive.
Last year, the late screen call against Aaliyah Edwards in Uconn helped to do DOOM UCONN to lose the national semi -finals of two points, this to Iowa.
Now, Uconn again knocks on the championship door. After dealing with the multiple changing injuries of the season for players such as Al -Balaah and Azwa Food in recent years, Auriemma said what he feels in this four final team is that the players are in good health.
“The fact that we have a chance to be able to deal with the game a little better than we had before, this is rewarding,” said Orima. “This compensates for all the heart’s pain, all the shock and tribulation that we had to pass.”
