Aaliyah Edwards had 11 points and 11 rebounds Monday night in UConn’s 72-64 win against Syracuse, helping lift the Huskies to their NCAA-record 30th consecutive Sweet 16.
The Kingston, Ont., native, who announced last Thursday that she’s entering next month’s WNBA Draft, had 11 points and 11 rebounds Monday night in UConn’s 72-64 win against Syracuse, helping lift the Huskies to their NCAA-record 30th consecutive Sweet 16, where they’ll face seventh-seed Duke in Portland on Saturday.
UConn, a No. 3 seed in this year’s tournament, slipped as low as 17th in the AP Poll in December, the furthest it’s tumbled in the national rankings in 30 years. It’s a familiar challenge. Last year, Bueckers was sidelined for the entire season tearing her ACL in a summer pick-up game, and UConn was without Fudd for 22 games following a December knee injury.As a junior, she more than doubled her scoring average while leading the Big East in field goal percentage .
