WORCESTER, Mass. - For 12 minutes, Holy Cross looked like the team ranked in the top 10. The Crusaders drained open look after open look and ran their offense perfectly en route to, at one point, a well-deserved eight-point lead over mighty UConn. It couldn't last forever, though. (0) comments

WORCESTER, Mass. - In last Thursday's win over Purdue, the Huskies needed one player to step-up and keep the game in their hands during the first half with the rest of the team having a slow start.
