In her first season as head coach at Temple, Tonya Cordoza is said to have constantly sent text messages of her struggles to her former boss, UConn’s Geno Auriemma. But that was last year. This year, Cardoza and her team found their comfort zone. Tuesday night Cardoza and the Owls will find out how far they have come when they face Auriemma and the Huskies in the second round of the women's NCAA tournament. "This is one of the best teams ev-er," Cordoza said she's told her team. "Not just the No. 1 team in this country right now, but one of the best teams ever, and this is something that you will want to go out and enjoy ... take advantage of."
