HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — UConn finally celebrated — just a little bit.



The top-ranked Huskies danced and cheered after they cruised to their 72nd straight win and 16th Big East tournament championship with a 60-32 victory over No. 9 West Virginia on Tuesday night.



It was a much more festive atmosphere than the night before when they broke their own NCAA record for consecutive wins.



"We had a lot of minature goals during the entire season," said Kalana Greene, who scored 15 points and earned most outstanding player honors of the tournament. "Every championship that's thrown at us we want to win it. The streak can be thrown at us and if we don't win the Big East championship it doesn't mean anything."



The next challenge — if anything can truly be called a challenge for these Huskies — is the NCAA tournament. With six more victories, UConn will have its second consecutive national title and seventh overall.
