    No. 18 Villanova 52, No. 1 Connecticut 48

    PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) -- Connecticut has lost, finally.

    The longest winning streak in women's Division I history ended at 70 games Tuesday night. No. 18 Villanova handed No. 1 Connecticut its first loss since the end of the 2001 season, 52-48 for the championship of the Big East Conference tournament.

    Trish Juhline scored 16 points and Nicole Druckenmiller scored 11 in a remarkable 17-2 spurt that knocked Connecticut (31-1) from the unbeaten ranks on the eve of the NCAA tournament.

    The loss also ended Connecticut's bid to tie UCLA's record 88-game winning streak set from 1971-74.

    What a streak. I am not a big womans b-ball fan but uconn is an exciting team to see play. I wouldnt be surprised if they win another 70 row what of the better programs in all of sports. Oh well they still win the tourney probaly with no trouble

    Hmmmm... didn't the 12 mens players get banned from playing ball just yesterday. Coincidence, I think not. Check those women for....

    A wake up call right before the tournament is probably good for them.
