Video: Moriah Jefferson Is The Engine That Pushes UConn Women

When you take a look around the locker room, you see star after star on the UConn women’s basketball team.

You have the best player in America in Breanna Stewart. You have the best shooter in Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis.

Part of the reason why both of those players are successful is their point guard Moriah Jefferson.

Of all the players on the team, Jefferson is probably the most improved and one who has taken her game to another level. There’s a pretty good chance she ends up as an All-American this year and possibly win the Nancy Lieberman Award for best point guard.

She’s a big reason why UConn is 32-1 entering the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament.

Watch and/or listen below as USF Bulls head coach Jose Fernandez talks about the UConn women’s basketball team and Jefferson being the “engine” that drive the UConn bus.
