As expected, the subject of Jessica McCormack's impending surgery was a popular topic of conversation when UConn coach Geno Auriemma met with the media following Monday's practice. Not much to report about the actual surgery other than it is supposed to take place in her native New Zealand on Wednesday.

Auriemma did say that by her leaving school, she would not be eligible until the Fall, 2009 is over.

Also, Kalana Greene is still pondering her decision to apply for a fifth year of eligibility but no decision has been made yet. Don't be surprised if it happens sooner rather than later.
