Tina Charles. I know, I was shocked too.

UConn's all-time leading scorer and rebounder added the award for regular-season games played in the month of August to the honor she received in May, June and July.

TENNIS, ANYONE?
UConn women's basketball coach Geno Auriemma is expected to be at the Pilot Pen Tennis tournament on Wednesday. He is scheduled to do a live interview with Bruce Barber at the Sony Ericsson stage at 4 p.m. in the upper concourse of the Connecticut Tennis Center and will be signing autographs beginning at 5 p.m.

Auriemma's appearance is being held in conjunction with the partnership of his cancer fundraising organization's "Geno's Cancer Team" with the Pilot Pen. Online ticket purchasers were able to get discounted rates for tickets by using the "VF10" promotion code with 5 percent of the proceeds from those tickets sales going to Geno's Cancer Team.
