UConn Looks to Make History with NCAA Final Matchup with Syracuse

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Breanna Stewart came to UConn with the lofty goal of winning four national championships and the Huskies are one victory away from history.
They will play former Big East foe Syracuse on Tuesday night with a chance to become the first women's team to win four straight Division I titles. Only UCLA, with seven in a row from 1967-73, has done it on the men's side and a UConn victory would give coach Geno Auriemma 11 national championships -- one more than Bruins coach John Wooden for the most ever in the history of college basketball.
