The national media talks about Edwards’ UConn teammate Paige Bueckers, Iowa’s Caitlin Clark and others. But don’t forget Edwards.

“Yeah, I mean, to the national media she’s under-appreciated, under- respected,” Buecker said of Edwards. “She deserves — the UConn fans, they know every single game, every single day what she brings and that’s a competitive spirit, drive, determination, domination, and just the will to.

“She never complains once what she doesn’t receive, how much credit she gets. She puts her head down, like Nika says, and she just works and does anything this team asks and needs of her.”

Edwards finished the Final Four loss with 17 points, eight rebounds and three assists.

“And she was put on a heavy load this entire year, this entire four years as the person who was the most consistent in the lineup, always carried the heaviest load, always handled the pressure, and just showed up every single day ready to go, regardless of the circumstances and who was around her,” Bueckers said.

“I mean, UConn fans know how much Aaliyah means to this program. Like Nika said, she’s one of the greats. And I’m so, so glad she gets to go up on that wall and she was recognized as a First-Team All-American because that’s what she’s been. Aaliyah is everything to this program. She embodies this program. And she’s going down as one of the greats.”
