UConn's men's basketball team clinched its first outright Big East regular-season title in 25 years with a commanding 91-61 victory over Seton Hall. The Huskies, ranked No. 3, displayed a balanced offensive performance led by Donovan Clingan's 19 points and 11 rebounds. Freshman Stephon Castle contributed 21 points, while Tristen Newton recorded 17 points and 10 assists. Alex Karaban added 13 points to the winning effort.

Seton Hall's Dre Davis and Kadary Richmond led their team with 20 and 15 points, respectively, but it wasn't enough to overcome UConn's dominance. UConn shot an impressive 56% from the field and outscored Seton Hall 52-30 in the paint.
