UConn basketball: Huskies bully Coppin State in 89-54 win

The UConn Huskies bullied their way to victory on Saturday afternoon.

Powered by the defense and five double-figure performances, UConn emerged victorious against Coppin State. The Huskies defeated visiting Coppin State 89-54 to improve to 2-0 on the young season.

Adama Sanogo stood out for the second consecutive game. Sanogo fell one rebound shy of a double-double but scored 20 points and was nearly unstoppable. He shot 10-of-13 from the floor as Coppin State simply had no answer for him whatsoever.

UConn had four other double-figure scorers to join Sanogo in that category. RJ Cole (16), Tyrese Martin (15), Akok Akok (12), and Jalen Gaffney (11) were all uberly productive in the victory.
