UConn closes in on record; Charles reaches milestone
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
03/01/2010 -
South Bend, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tina Charles posted 18 points and eight
rebounds while becoming the Huskies' all-time leading scorer and rebounder, as
top-ranked Connecticut finished off its second straight undefeated regular
season with a 76-51 drubbing of Notre Dame at the Joyce Center.
The Huskies' (30-0, 16-0 Big East) win streak now sits at 69, one shy of the
NCAA Division I women's basketball record, which was also achieved by UConn
from 2001-03. They will have a chance to tie the mark in the quarterfinals of
the Big East Tournament on March 7 at the XL Center.
This is the sixth perfect regular season in the program's history and its
eighth flawless run through the conference.
The 6-foot-4 Charles moved past Nykesha Sales (2,178) for the point lead and
Rebecca Lobo (1,268) for the rebounding crown.
Maya Moore, who as a junior will likely challenge those new plateaus, posted
17 points and nine boards, while Kalana Greene chipped in 12 and nine in
another resounding win for the Huskies.
Tiffany Hayes and Caroline Doty ended with 13 and 11 points, respectively, for
the victors.
Devereaux Peters and Becca Bruszewski each netted 15 points for the Fighting
Irish (25-4, 12-4), who dropped three of their final five games of the regular
season.
Leading scorer Skylar Diggins went 2-for-10 from the field and scored eight
points for Notre Dame, which lost both bouts to UConn by a combined 146-97
score.
Bruszewski single-handedly kept the Irish in it in the first half, as her
three-pointer pulled the hosts within 16-15 at the midway point.
The Huskies scored the next 10 points though, capped by a Doty three-point
play for a 26-15 lead.
UConn, which has beaten 11 ranked opponents this season, was up 36-23 at the
break, and its lead never dipped below double digits in the second half.
The only other undefeated team in women's hoops is Nebraska (27-0).
