Ashlynn Shade has emerged as a key player down the stretch for UConn .

UConn beat Oklahoma 82 -59 in NCAA Tournament regional semifinal semifinal game.

Shade, in her sophomore year, was named Big East’s Sixth Player of the Year last year .

She started 12 games last year as a freshman after injuries decimated the team.

Shade: "She doesn’t care, she’ll put her body on the line like you saw yesterday ".

Auriemma finds it easy to vent his frustrations sometimes on Shade, even if whatever went wrong is not completely her fault.

“I respect her so much because last year she was playing 30-some minutes a game and starting in last night ’s game. And yesterday she had as big an impact as she did last year in a different role,” he said.
