ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — With UConn struggling on offense, Crystal Dangerfield took over.
The Huskies' junior guard scored 11 of her 15 points in the fourth quarter, including nine during a game-changing spurt to start the period and No. 2 UConn went on to beat sixth-seeded UCLA 69-61 on Friday night in the Albany Regional semifinals. Napheesa Collier had 25 points and 10 rebounds to lead the Huskies.
"I don't think there's anything that came easy from the very opening tip. It was a struggle," UConn coach Geno Auriemma said.
