UConn women’s basketball head coach Geno Auriemma will miss his second straight game when the Huskies host Seton Hall on Wednesday.
Auriemma began feeling unwell with flu-like symptoms ahead of last Sunday’s game vs. Florida State. On the advice of medical staff, he will be away from the team through the weekend to recoup.
“There’s been a lot going on in the last couple weeks, and I think it caught up to my physically,” Auriemma said. “I’ve been feeling under the weather for about 10 days now, and my doctor recommended I take a few days off to fully recover. CD and the coaching staff will continue to do a phenomenal job in my absence, and I look forward to returning to the team in a few days.”
Associate head coach Chris Dailey will take over head coaching duties in Auriemma’s absence. Dailey has led the Huskies to a 14-0 record in Auriemma absences.
