The Connecticut Huskies were able to snap their four game losing streak with a blowout victory over the Seton Hall Pirates today. The win brings UConn's record to 15-7 overall and 5-5 in the Big East. The loss drops Seton Hall to 15-8 overall and 4-7 in the Big East.
The Huskies' defense held the Pirates to 26 percent shooting – including 5-26 from beyond the arch – and forced 15 turnovers. The Huskies also benefited from a +11 rebound differential and a +10 free throw differential.
Ryan Boatright led the Huskies in scoring with 19 points and added five assists and four steals. Fellow freshman phenom, Andre Drummond, scored seven points and six rebounds, and tied a season-high with seven blocked shots.
The Huskies will look to add some impressive wins to their resume before selection Sunday next week when they face the 25th ranked Louisville Cardinals and second ranked Syracuse Orange on the road.
