The clock just went under 40 minutes before UConn attempts to secure its 10th Final Four appearance.

UConn sophomore Maya Moore, the only unanimous selection to the Associated Press' All-American team, needs eight points to break Kara Wolters' single-season program scoring record. Wolters, who is the women's basketball color commentator for the UConn Radio Network, and is sitting about four seats away from me on press row joked that people should remember that Moore had the advantage of the 3-point shot. When I asked her how may 3-pointers she might have had during her UConn days, the 6-foot-7 Wolters laughed and said "good point."

Renee Montgomery will play in her 148th career game one shy of Ashley Battle's UConn record.

There are no surprises in the starting lineups. UConn will go with Moore, Montgomery, Tina Charles, Tifany Hayes and Kalana Greene. Arizona State's starting five is Kayli Murphy, Sybil Dosty, Kate Engelbrecht, Danielle Orsillo and Briann January.

Arizona State has already set program single-season records with 173 3-pointers and 133 blocks.

The officials are Lisa Mattingly, Clarke Stevens and Beverly Roberts with Norma Jones the standby official.

At the regional semifinals, Yale women's basketball coach Chris Gobrecht was in the stands and former Guilford High and University of New Haven softball pitcher Jo-Lynn Cimino was also among those in attendance at the Sovereign Bank Arena. If Gobrecht is here today, she has a different seat.
