Two weeks ago, UConn women’s basketball scored just three points in the fourth quarter during a loss to No. 1 South Carolina. On Sunday, the Huskies dominated the final period as they outscored the No. 24 Notre Dame Fighting Irish 22-10 in the final period en route to a 73-54 victory.
The win came at a cost, though. Paige Bueckers suffered a non-contact injury with 38.5 seconds left and needed to be carried to the bench by teammates. She was helped through the handshake line and went straight into the tunnel.
Caroline Ducharme had a breakout performance with 14 points — second-most of the team — on 3-of-5 shooting from beyond the arc.
