No. 1 UCONN HOLDS OFF MICHIGAN, WINS 11th STRAIGHT GAME

February 7, 2009


It definitely was not pretty, but Connecticut got 19 points from Jerome Dyson and Hasheem Thabeet put together a line of 17 points, 12 rebounds and 6 blocks as the Huskies Gut One Out (Journal Inquirer), 69-61, over Michigan in a non-league contest Saturday.

UConn trailed 34-33 at halftime, but were too much on their home floor in the second half, winning their 11th straight game as the Huskies Survive Scare (Norwich Bulletin) and remain the No. 1 team in the land.

Jeff Adrien scored nine points and grabbed 14 rebounds as Adrien reaches Milestone (Rep-Am) with his 1,000th rebound, becoming the fifth UConn player with 1,000 points and rebounds in a career.

UConn hosts Syracuse on Wednesday night.
