Rick Nixon | NCAA.com | January 8, 2019 Women's basketball: Historic win over UConn earns Baylor Team of the Week honors Andy Katz calls for a Notre Dame repeat as national champs in women's hoops Share The Baylor Lady Bears are the NCAA.com Team of the Week, enjoying a 2-0 week that included putting an end to the historic regular season winning streak of the UConn Huskies. MORE: NCAA women's basketball tournament dates, schedule The Lady Bears 68-57 win over the top-ranked and previously undefeated Huskies on Jan. 3 before a sellout crowd of 10,284 at the Ferrell Center, brought to an end UConn’s 126-game regular-season winning streak that stretched over five seasons. The top-ranked Huskies (11-1) hadn’t lost a regular-season game in regulation since a 76-70 home loss to Baylor on Feb. 18, 2013 — a span of 163 games. UConn’s only regular-season loss since then was 88-86 in overtime at Stanford on Nov. 14, 2014. UConn had won 58 consecutive non-conference matchups. The win extended Baylor’s own home-court non-conference winning streak to 45 straight. Senior All-American Kalani Brown led the way for Baylor with 22 points and 17 rebounds against UConn. Brown dominated the inside, hitting 11-of-17 from the floor, posting a season high for rebounds while recording her second straight double-double.
