Kim Caldwell defeated the legend. She humbled the UConn brand. She planted her flag. She made the Lady Vols a player again.

Kim Caldwell beat UConn on her first attempt. Her Lady Vols took down Geno Auriemma's Huskies, 80-76. "We knew this when she took the job here," Tennessee guard Samara Spencer said. "We knew she won a lot of games, and she told us when she got her she wants this year to be the year that we do something special. She didn't want to wait."
