Summary: It was same old, same old against those Villanova Perretta Wildcats. More walking the ball up and draining the shot clock, but with such a young squad they didn't stand a chance against the Machine Huskies. Led by the lights-out shooting of All-American W Maya Moore, UConn blew the game wide open as they held Villanova without a single point for almost 9mins. and easily won 74-35. Moore finished with 24p/8r/4a in 23mins on 10-14FG shooting and 3-4 shooting from 3. Native Philly-girl and UConn Sr. F Meghan Gardler made her first career start in front of her hometown family and friends and finished with 6p/3r/1s in 24mins. Fellow native Philly-girl G Caroline Doty made her debut in front of her hometown family and friends, and even though she struggled shooting the ball (1-8FG shooting), she did a bunch of other things to make the trip a success finishing with 3p/4r/6a/2s in 28mins.
