The Terrapins gave the Huskies their closest battle of the season, but UConn prevailed as Breanna Stewart and Morgan Tuck both hit career milestones.
With the move to the American Athletic Conference, UConn Women's Basketball had to seriously raise the level of competition on its non-conference schedule. After already playing four ranked teams so far in this young season, they had the No. 5 team in the country on the schedule tonight at Madison Square Garden in the Maggie Dixon Classic.
Maryland (11-1) kept the game competitive into the final minute but the Huskies still came out on top--defeating their fifth top-20 opponent--on Monday night, 83-73.
