Doing the right thing

Three cheers for the Connecticut women's basketball program and for coach Geno Auriemma for granting prized freshman Elena Delle Donne a complete release from the scholarship, per her request.
There was a condition attached that she can only play basketball at Delaware this year, and while she should be able to go and play where ever she wants, the condition seems reasonable since it does place her back at home, where she apparently wanted to go.
She's already been accepted at Newark for this year. It really does seem that on this rare occasion, someone did right by a college athlete.
