Caroline Ducharme is an American college basketball player for the UConn Huskies of the Big East Conference.
Ducharme attended the Noble and Greenough School in Dedham, Massachusetts, and was ranked as the number 11 recruit in her class by ESPN.[1]
At the start of the 2021-22 season, Ducharme was relegated to a bench role. However, when starting guard Paige Bueckers injured her left knee on December 5, Ducharme got more playing time as a result. In that game, she scored 14 points in the fourth quarter to help the Huskies beat their rival Notre Dame.[2] Bueckers' and Azzi Fudd's injuries led to Ducharme assuming a scoring role, averaging 15.8 points over the next 15 games. The return of the two players led to a decrease in Ducharme's role, as she had limited playing time during UConn's tournament run.[3]
Ducharme's role was set to increase in the 2022-23 season with the departure of guard Christyn Williams, but injuries hindered her season. She missed UConn's home opener against Northeastern, and missed 13 games due to a concussion sustained in January.[4] When she wasn't out, she had an increased playing role due to Paige Bueckers being out for the season with a torn ACL, and Azzi Fudd being out for the majority of the season with a right knee injury.
In the 2023 Big East tournament, Ducharme was removed from the Huskies' game against Georgetown with a head injury after colliding into her teammate, Aaliyah Edwards.[5]
In the 2023 March Madness tournament, Ducharme played a depth role behind Fudd and Lou Lopez Sénéchal.
