It was a battle but UConn men’s basketball overcame Seton Hall, 64-55, in Gampel Pavilion Saturday to improve to 20-7 overall and 9-7 in the Big East.
Jordan Hawkins led UConn with 20 points and five rebounds while Adama Sanogo added eight points and six rebounds. Andre Jackson stuffed the stat sheet with 15 points, 10 rebounds, and three assists in one of his most complete performances of the season.
As mentioned in our preview, limiting turnovers and keeping Hall off the charity stripe were keys to success today. The Huskies had 18 turnovers — a persistent, mind-numbing red flag — but held the Pirates to only 15 free throw attempts.
