  Morgan Valley
  ...
  They were also the elders during last year's national championship run ... Taurasi, the California kid with the helicopter-pilot bravado ... Maria Conlon, the dynamo from Derby ... Morgan Valley, the Vermonter, whose arduous recovery from a painful ailment in both feet is apt to make those pulling for her burst spontaneously into a chorus of "We Shall Overcome."
  ...
  "Morgan had to work so hard to get back from her injury.
  ...
  You can always count on Diana for the amazing plays; Morgan will always be out there running a sprint, working just as hard as everybody else even when she might be hurting; and I'll be the one that's kind of composed.
  ...
  "A couple days later, one of the fathers said to my husband, ‘Ever since my daughter saw Morgan run home after working for eight hours at camp, she's been working a lot harder.' So it turns out she was inspiring someone with her work ethic."
  
  In all likelihood, that wasn't the first time.
  
  Valley, a WBCA All-American who helped Rice Memorial High School to back-to-back state championships her junior and senior seasons, was ranked among the top 25 high school recruits in the nation from the Class of 2000 when she signed with UConn.
  
  She finished her high school career with school records in points (1,363), assists (477) and steals (385), with the deft passing ability of Larry Bird and the work ethic and toughness, according to Auriemma, of former UConn standouts Kerry Bascom, Meghan Pattyson and Carla Berube.
  
  She played 29 games as a freshman before being sidelined for the final 22 games of her sophomore season due to injury, suffering pain in both feet from an affliction called plantar fasciitis.
  
  There were times Valley would run down the court and her mother would cringe.

  Many things were left unresolved for Morgan Valley when she left the UConn women's basketball program.
  
  While she won three national championships, she never had a chance to put her own mark on the program the way she would have liked.Leg and foot injuries limited her to 282 career points and 1,233 minutes played.
  
  The injuries robbed Valley of the physical ability to perform at the level her passion and knowledge of the game dictated she should have played.She is getting a chance now to utilize that passion and knowledge in another way.
  ...
  Valley said she applied to 50-60 colleges with coaching openings and began to get discouraged.She came close to getting several jobs and was even a finalist for the head coaching job at St. Joseph College in West Hartford, but nothing materialized.
  ...
  "I was so happy, I was screaming," Valley said."As soon as I got off the phone, I called my dad and my dad couldn't understand a word I was saying.I was going crazy.I was all excited."
  
  Valley said she expected the job to be more coaching, but she is enjoying it.Her main responsibilities are coordinating film exchange with opponents and helping the coaches around the office with a lot of paperwork.She does limited advance scouting.
  
  "It's been interesting and a lot of fun," Valley said."It's very different from Connecticut, but very good."
