It feels weird to use the words "UConn" and "drought" in the same sentence, and the Huskies are one win away from that no longer being an issue.
UConn took down defending champion Stanford 63-58 in the Final Four on Friday, setting up a clash with top overall seed on Sunday. It will be the program's first appearance in the national championship game since the days of Breanna Stewart, a string of four straight titles that ended in 2016.
Since then, UConn had seen its season end in the Final Four for four straight tournaments, not counting the cancelled 2020 event.
