NEW YORK - The way UConn is playing, they might be the favourite to win the Big East Conference Tournament, especially with top-seeded Villanova making an unexpected exit earlier in the day. Tyrese Martin had 14 points and 10 rebounds and third-seeded UConn made an impressive return in its first Big East showcase in eight years with a 94-60 quarterfinal victory over DePaul on Thursday night. One of the founding members of the Big East and a winner of seven tournament titles being leaving, UConn spent the past seven years in the American Athletic Conference. The 34-point win was its largest of the season and the fourth largest win in the league’s tournament history. ”That’s what you get with these stars, you know?”UP NEXTLoading... Loading... Loading...
