UConn Stars Vow to Play Fenway Bowl Despite Coaching Changes

UConn's top players, including consensus All-American Skyler Bell and running back Cam Edwards, have confirmed their participation in the upcoming Fenway Bowl against Army. This commitment comes despite the recent departure of head coach Jim Mora and quarterback Joe Fagnano opting out. Bell highlighted the strong team brotherhood as a key motivator for his decision to play one last game with his teammates.

The Huskies are aiming to secure their 10th win of the season, a historic milestone for the program, as all three of their losses this season were in overtime. Interim coach Gordon Sammis will lead the team, with UConn having already hired Toledo's Jason Candle as their new head coach. The team looks to replicate their success from last year's Fenway Bowl victory.

Army, led by coach Jeff Monken, also enters the game with aspirations of achieving a winning record. The Black Knights are seeking their third consecutive bowl win. Quarterback Cale Hellums has been a key player for Army, nearing a 1,200-yard rushing season. Army relies on a roster of upperclassmen developed within their system, eschewing the transfer portal.
