Creighton vs. UConn Game Summary

The game began surprisingly as Creighton ripped off the first eight points in the opening four minutes and looked poised to run away with a victory. The Huskies crept back and took an 11-10 lead to end the quarter on a jumper from Azzi Fudd.

From there, it was all Huskies, as that meager lead became a 38-22 halftime advantage. UConn stretched its edge to 22 points in the third quarter and even took a 24-point lead a couple times in the final stanza.

Sarah Strong led UConn with 22 points and nine boards, connecting on 10 of 13 shots. All-American Paige Bueckers was solid, with 15 points, seven rebounds and seven assists. Kaitlyn Chen added 11 points, shooting 3-for-5 from 3-point range.

Morgan Maly was the only Creighton player to reach double digits in scoring. Maly had 11 points and seven rebounds. Creighton shot just 34.5% overall for the game and also committed 19 turnovers.
