Late Game Gaffes
Goodman: No, this isn’t meant to be some pun about Jalen Gaffney, but an unfortunate narrative for the whole team. While UConn did come into this game having only dropped one to Michigan State, late game execution has been a weakness throughout the first third of the season and tonight was no different. After the Huskies led 51-48 with four minutes remaining, West Virginia outscored UConn 8-3 the rest of the way, with UConn’s only points coming on a desperation Whaley putback with 12 seconds remaining. In this span the Huskies committed two turnovers, five fouls, and missed six shots.
