Hello NIT: Cincinnati Dispatches UConn In Calhoun’s First Game Back

Coach Jim Calhoun returned to the UConn (14-11, 4-8) sideline after missing the last three weeks with an undisclosed medical condition. The Huskies were 3-4 during Calhoun’s absence, and they’ve now lost five of their last six games.

UConn grabbed its largest lead at six with 6:19 remaining until halftime. The Huskies held Cincinnati to 9-of-31 shooting (.290) from the floor in the opening half, but they went into intermission with the score tied, 22-22.
