It was a white out and Senior Night on Wednesday inside Gampel Pavilion for a top-20 matchup between No. 18 UConn men’s basketball and No. 20 Providence. It was tight for much of the first half, with neither team grabbing a lead of more than five points, but after a pair of Bryce Hopkins free throws brought the Friars to within three with 12:39 to play, the Huskies opened up a 14-0 run over nearly five minutes to put the visitors away.
This was a big one and here’s what the staff took away from the dominant performance.
