GENO: IN PERSUIT OF PERFECTION

I started a new book this week. It's an autobiography by Geno Auriemma, who in my opinion is the best women's basketball coach of all time. (sorry Pat) haha. He has won back to back national championships at UConn, consisting of some of today's best players in the WNBA, like Diana Taurasi and Sue Bird. The plot of the book is basically Geno going through the years starting from about 1980 through 2005. He talks about the individuals seasons, all the different players that impacted the games, and his feeling throughout his coaching career. It's super interesting!
I have actually enjoyed reading this week. Instead of just reading two and a half hours, I read four. That's seriously one of the first times I've ever read more that I was forced to. Oh yeah, back to the plot thing. I guess the different seasons are kind of like the episodes Dr. D mentioned in class: each having their on climax and  resolution. I  think I'm going to enjoy reading this book a lot. Geno is hilarious too! :)
