Bird was named a WBCA All-American.[5] She participated in the WBCA High School All-America Game, where she scored eleven points Sue chose UConn over Stanford, Vanderbilt and many others. She chose UConn because UConn was close to home, and the UConn program had a winning tradition like the one at Christ the King. [7] She suffered an ACL injury, eight games into her freshman season. She was not able to redshirt because she played in more than 20% of the team’s games.
