Mike DiMauro in Connecticut writes about Kara Lawson:

She's no rock star, but she's become a face of women's basketball, with eyes that, depending on what the calendar says, peer into the camera or pierce anyone trying to guard her.

Lawson, perpetually misunderstood by the Connecticut faithful, usually gets booed at Mohegan Sun Arena. It's the Tennessee thing. Yet while Connecticut women's basketball fans score big points for their knowledge, they rarely look smaller than when they serenade a young woman whose personality, accountability and candor are helping the game they love grow a little more every day.
