FYI: UConn Notebook

UConn will try to win their 100^th consecutive home game Saturday against St. John’s,  Senior Night for Tiffany Hayes and a number of team managers. UConn has not lost in Connecticut since the 2007 Big East tournament against Rutgers. The number also includes postseason games played in Hartford and Storrs because they are considered home venues. The Huskies have played 32 ranked teams during the streak … Hayes comes into the game ranked 12^th all-time in career scoring at UConn with 1,655 points. She needs 23 to tie Shea Ralph for 10^th and 45 to pass Ann Strother into the Top 10. If Hayes has a strong postseason, she has a chance to also surpass Svetlana Abrosimova for ninth (1,865), although Abrosimova played only 127 games at UConn. Hayes will play her 143^rd game Saturday.

Much has been made of freshman Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis’ recent shooting slump. But Bria Hartley, who is averaging 14.4 and shooting 49.7 percent from the floor has made just 7 of her last 35 threes since going 3 of 5 at Syracuse on Jan. 25. Lewis is 23 of 65 since Syracuse (six games ago) and 14 of 48 from three over the last seven. If Lewis wins one more Big East Freshman of the Week award it will be her eight, surpassing Rebecca Lobo for second all-time in conference history behind Maya Moore, who was a 10-time pick in the 2007-08 season.… St. John’s hasn’t defeated UConn since Jan. 6, 1993 and just once since Feb. 6, 1988. UConn has won the last 27 meeting. … During the course of the season, the Huskies have played 52 halves of basketball. They have only lost two in cumulative scoring, the second half at Baylor (38-27) and the second half at Louisville (29-23).
