Outside shooting freezes out Michigan basketball in UConn rematch
Michigan basketball score: Trey McKenney went 0-for-7 in the first half as the Wolverines struggled with their shooting in a loss to UConn on Friday.
The rematch between Michigan and UConn, seven months to the day after their national championship game, took place at TD Garden on November 11th. Despite the significance of the rematch, the atmosphere was electric for a November basketball game. Michigan's offense struggled throughout the evening, shooting only 41.3% from the floor and 25% from three.
The Huskies, however, dominated with an 18-4 run in the second half and cut Michigan's deficit in half. UConn's Trey McKenney emerged as the player of the game with 22 points in the second half, while U-M's Quinn Costello hit a corner 3 with 15:39 left in the first half. UConn's 9-2 run with 7:50 to play sealed the victory.
