UConn Claims Title Share
With three regular-season games remaining for 10 of the 11 BIG EAST women’s basketball squads, No. 1/1 UConn clinched at least a share of the regular-season title for the 20th time in program history. The Huskies won at Xavier on Saturday, 83-32, to improve to 15-0 in BIG EAST play, while Creighton upset No. 19/19 DePaul, 83-72, dropping the Blue Demons into third place in the standings at 10-3. Marquette, which defeated Villanova on Friday (65-57) rose to second place at 12-3. With three games remaining for UConn, Marquette and DePaul, the Golden Eagles could only match the Huskies in the standings at 15-3 (.
