The UConn Huskies' historic men's and women's basketball programs have combined for 17 titles. Find out more about the teams' all-time records.

UConn coach Mike Cavanaugh knows that these tournaments in the middle of winter are about more than just bragging rights. When he was an assistant on Jerry York’s staff for 18 seasons, he witnessed many a Boston College team capture a Beanpot title, and use that as a springboard for the rest of the season.

The game remained competitive early, with DePaul closing the gap to 23-20 in the second quarter. However, UConn responded with a 17-4 run to seize control by halftime. The Huskies’ outside shooting played a key role, as they shot 54.5% (12-for-22) from beyond the arc, with Chen going 3-for-3 and Fudd 4-for-7.
