It’s game day for the No. 1 UConn Huskies men’s basketball team as they are in Newark, NJ at the Prudential Center to take on the Seton Hall Pirates. The tip is scheduled for 12 PM and the game will be covered locally on MyTV9 and SNY. Mike Gleason (play-by-play) and Mike Kelley (analyst) have the call.
For the men it’s their first game A.J.D (after Jerome Dyson). The Huskies have played without him before and I fully expect Craig Austrie and Kemba Walker to step up their games while filling in for him.
