The UConn Huskies earned a spot in the NCAA women’s basketball national championship game with a commanding 85-51 victory over UCLA in the Final Four. Freshman Sarah Strong led the team with 22 points, making her mark in UConn history. The team will face off against South Carolina for a chance at their 12th national title. UConn’s star player Paige Bueckers emphasized that past games don’t matter now, with both teams aiming for a fresh start in the championship game. Despite a strong effort from UCLA’s Lauren Betts, the Bruins fell short with turnovers and poor shooting from beyond the arc. UConn credited their defense for containing Betts and securing the win. The victory marks UConn’s return to the championship game after facing South Carolina in their last appearance, where they suffered their only defeat in a national title game. The Huskies are determined to rewrite history and secure another championship under coach Geno Auriemma.
