UConn women's basketball coach Geno Auriemma coached the Huskies Sunday at No. 20 Maryland just three days after losing his mother, Marsiella. Marsiella Auriemma, who turned 91 in June, died on Thursday, according to a UConn spokesperson. Auriemma's father, Donato, died in 1997 during the Big East Tournament and associate head coach Chris Dailey took over head coaching responsibilities. But Auriemma was with his team Sunday.
The Hall of Fame coach flew to Philadelphia last week to be with his mom. He returned to Storrs on Wednesday and coached the Huskies during Thursday's game against Princeton. Auriamma said after the game that he learned how to coach from watching his mom interact with others while growing up.
