Houston and Charles led the way with double-doubles as UConn defeated Napoli in its 1st exhibition game in Italy, 78-57. Houston finished with 13pts. and 10 rebs. and Charles finished with 14 pts. and 14 rebs. Nicole Antibe and Kedra Holland-Corn led the way for Napoli with 16 pts. a piece (Antibe also had a double-double with 10 rebs.).

From reading the boxscore, I don't think Geno's very pleased his team's overall performance (i.e. - shooting 12-27 from the charity stripe, coughing the ball up 19 times, and 3 of 5 starters ending up with 4 fouls each), but I'm sure they took some good things away from the game, if nothing more than just more experience for the underclassmen (can McLaren please start playing as well as she does in exhibition games in real games??)
