Jeff Adrien has been the bright spot for the Huskies, hitting 5 of 9 shots for 11 points, but he has two fouls.
The Toreros' have made 15 of 32 shots, a number that would be better if guard Brandon Johnson wasn't 3 for 10. Gyno Pomare has 14 at the break with just one foul, surprisingly low since he has been pretty aggressive.
UConn has used its size well inside to make seven layups but has converted just one other 2-point basket.
On the other side, San Diego has faired well with jump shots, 3s and layups, a diverse attack that leaves them options for the second half.
At this point, it's a matter of whether or not San Diego can keep this up. A Connecticut run is overdue, just as a Drake run was due and delivered in the last game here.
Can the Toreros sustain UConn's runs and not get jittery?
