Some pre-game thoughts

The 2009-10 national championship banner, currently covered up above Section 210, will be unveiled at 2:06 p.m.

A major surprise in the starting lineup with Heather Buck getting the start at center ahead of freshman Stefanie Dolson. Ironically, Holy Cross was a major player in the recruitment of Buck when she was at Stonington High. Had she not gone to UConn, it's likely she would have enrolled at Holy Cross. Lorin Dixon gets the start at point guard meaning there will be no freshmen in UConn's starting lineup.

With 2,168 career points, UConn senior Maya Moore needs 11 points to move into second place on UConn's career scoring list.

Moore and injured junior guard Caroline Doty met with the officials and Holy Cross captains.

Holy Cross, hit hard by graduation, opened the season with a 74-71 loss to Yale.

Amy Lepley led the Crusaders with 18 points and 11 rebounds.

For those interested in such things, I will be tweeting live @nhrjimfuller
