Azzi Fudd scored all of her 17 points in the third quarter on Sunday as No. 5 UConn cruised to a 77-40 road win over Providence.
Paige Bueckers tallied 20 points and Ashlynn Shade chipped in 12 for the Huskies (22-3, 13-0 Big East), who recovered after Thursday’s 80-76 nonconference loss at No. 19 Tennessee. UConn made 11 of 24 attempts from 3-point range and flipped 25 takeaways into 21 points.
The Friars (10-16, 3-10) got 15 points from Marta Morales Romero and 10 rebounds from Olivia Olsen but couldn’t build on Thursday’s 76-63 home win over DePaul. Providence shot just 26.5 percent overall and slogged to a 4-of-24 effort from beyond the arc.
The Huskies led by 14 after the first quarter and entered halftime up 40-16. Fudd went 6-for-7 from the floor in the third quarter and made all five of her 3-point attempts as UConn put the game well out of reach.
