Huskies Withstand Challenge From Sooners For 65th Straight Win

After a lackluster performance in the 14 point win over St. John’s on Saturday, the No. 1/1 UConn Huskies had a plan of making a point in front of a nationally-televised audience against the No. 11/12 Oklahoma Sooners. Instead, the Huskies got all they could handle from Sheri Coale’s Sooners squad.

It took a strong second half  effort to get the job done but the Huskies would prevail 76-60 in front of 11,865 at the Lloyd Noble Center in Norman, OK on another WBCA Pink Zone game to benefit the Kay Yow/WBCA Cancer Fund.
