The game plan for UCF in today's semifinal was easy to figure out.
The Knights were going to aggressively crash the boards and make the officials to call fouls (which they didn't), on the other end, other than Katie Lou Samuelson they were willing to give up perimeter looks and try to clog up the lane.
It worked - for a while.
After giving up six offensive rebounds in the first quarter to UCF, UConn began pushing back and as a result it went from being a two-point game at the end of the first quarter to a 12-point lead at halftime and 24-point lead heading into the fourth quarter.
