The Aftermath: UConn's win over Holy Cross was a microcosm of the season so far

UConn’s 88-52 win over Holy Cross could’ve been a lot worse. Despite a poor first half, the Huskies kept every player on their roster — which wasn’t the case the last time they put up a lackluster performance against the Crusaders coming out of a Thanksgiving tournament. 

Back during the 2002-03 season, they returned from winning the Wahine Classic in Hawaii and slogged to a 68-46 victory at Holy Cross in which they trailed during the second half.
