That was the turning point in the game. That's definitely huge. I was struggling on the offensive end and a big defensive play made up for the offence.

I would never have thought I'd be in this situation. The best decision I ever made was to come to Connecticut.

I didn't want the season over so soon. Next year I will come back ready, I'm not a rookie anymore. I learned a lot starting out 1-15 and digging out of that hole. It was a tough year though.
