- Huskies will face No 1 overall seed UCLA on Friday
- Texas and champions South Carolina are in other semi-final
Paige Bueckers and her UConn teammates didn’t cut down the net after securing a trip to the Final Four, even though a ladder was set up and ready to go. The reason was simple: The Huskies aren’t done yet.
Bueckers carried UConn to their record 24th national semi-final in the women’s NCAA Tournament, scoring 31 points on Monday night in a 78-64 victory over Southern California, which couldn’t overcome the loss of injured star JuJu Watkins.
UConn head to Tampa, Florida, to face overall No 1 seed UCLA on Friday. The other semi-final will be between an All-SEC showdown between defending champions South Carolina and Texas.
