HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) - February 19th, 2024
Paige Bueckers scored 24 points, Aaliyah Edwards added 20 and No. 15 UConn beat No. 21 Creighton 73-53 on Monday afternoon to secure at least a share of the Big East regular-season championship and the top seed in the conference tournament.
Ashlynn Shade added 15 points and nine rebounds for the Huskies (23-5, 15-0), who gave coach Geno Auriemma win No. 1,203, moving him past former Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski and into second on the all-time wins list behind Stanford's Tara VanDerveer (1,209).
Lauren Jensen had 20 points and Morgan Maly scored 16 for Creighton (21-4, 12-3), which saw its 11-game winning streak snapped.
The teams were tied at halftime and Creighton led by five points after a 13-0 run that stretched from the second into the third quarter.
But UConn went on a 17-0 run from there, taking its first double-digit lead at 47-36 after a jumper from the foul line by Edwards.
The Huskies led 58-41 after three quarters.
UConn had led by as many as eight points in the first half, the last time after a steal and three-point play by Bueckers, which put the Huskies up 31-23.
But Creighton scored the final eight points of the half, helped by a technical foul on Auriemma, who became incensed after Edwards was knocked to the floor with no call.

6 good wins, only one questionable loss. They’ve been very solid all year, they just simply can’t match with the physicality of UConn. Hard to deny that they are definitely a top 25 team.

@@mattmcgill8669 “6 good wins” ZERO top 25. their best win is probably nebraska or ga tech and those were both pretty close so that isn’t saying much.. i think by THIS point in the season there’s no reason a top 25 team doesn’t have at least 1 top 25 win. uconn should be the only big east team ranked. no way they’re as decimated as they are and everyone else literally let them go undefeated in the conference. and getting blown out the water at that. that’s laughable.

They have 4 losses, and like you said earlier they only played three games vs ranked teams. If Marquette didn’t have a falling out, they would have a ranked win. Not to mention, they have three top 35 NET wins. And as for UConn, the big east is the absolutely perfect league for them to dominate. No one can stop the duo of Bueckers and Edwards, especially a team like Creighton who relies on ball movement and shooting. UConn played amazing defense, and tbh the game was decided entirely in the third quarter. Credit to UConn, and yes, Creighton could be better, but they are a top of 25 team, and for good reason.
beat another big least conference🤣
