Heart of a Husky is a unique book in the history of collegiate sports. Drawn from the daily journal of an active player, it welcomes readers to places and events not open to even the most privileged of fans. Mel shares every facet of her life as a student-athlete; and she pulls no punches. She shines a bright light on relationships with teammates and coaches, the most difficult days of physical training, team meetings and locker room talks, tears and cheers in players’ apartments, team dinners at her coach’s home, travel experiences, and even weddings. This all adds up to a fascinating journey for players, coaches, parents and fans of all sports.
It is a gift to all who are interested in athletics, that Mel has shared her love for basketball with a national audience. Kudos to her—for having the foresight to start her journal, the eloquence to make it sing, and the determination to bring it to publication.
"Mel Thomas exemplifies all the best values and lessons of sport. She is a hard worker, a loyal teammate, and a perfectionist in every area of her life. Coaches from elementary schools to the pros should encourage their athletes to read Mel’s story."

"In Heart of a Husky, Mel Thomas captures the essence of what it’s like to play for Geno Auriemma and the UConn Huskies. Mel has a wonderful sense of humor that runs all through her book. Many of the stories she tells about her coaches and teammates left me laughing out loud."
