Stanley Robinson Leads No. 11 UConn To Easy Win Over Iona

“I asked the players to play hard today right from the get-go, and I think we did,” said UConn head coach Jim Calhoun.

UConn opened some early breathing room with an 8-2 run, turning a 6-4 lead into a 14-6 advantage. A pair of three-pointers pulled Iona within two, but Dyson drained a shot from beyond the arc to ignite a 9-3 Husky run. Robinson’s jumper off the break with just under 11 minutes left in the half gave Connecticut a 23-15 edge.
