Freshman guard Sadie Edwards to transfer from UConn

Freshman guard Sadie Edwards has decided to transfer from No. 2 Connecticut. Head coach Geno Auriemma made the transfer announcement Tuesday.

“Sadie is a great kid who will be missed by the coaching staff and her teammates,” Auriemma said. “Getting to know Sadie and her family has been a pleasure but she has voiced her desire to play more and we have come to the mutual agreement that this can best be accomplished at a different school. I wish Sadie nothing but the best in the future.”

Edwards will complete her final exams this week prior to finalizing her transfer. The Meriden, Conn. native played in six games, averaging 4.8 minutes per contest.
