  • Ryan Boatright Hits Game-Winning 3-Pointer as UConn Beats Cincinnati

    Share Zagsblog Share Zagsblog

    Ryan Boatright is the latest UConn guard to hit a postseason game-winner in a big spot.

    We’ve seen Kemba Walker and Shabazz Napier lead the Huskies to March Madness heroics, and now apparently it’s Boatright’s turn.

    He hit this game-winning 3-pointer as defending NCAA champion UConn beat Cincinnati, 57-54, in the quarterfinals of the American Athletic Conference tournament at the XL Center in Hartford, Conn.

    UConn will meet Tulsa in the semifinals on Saturday.

    The only way the Huskies can defend their NCAA title is by winning the league championship and gaining an automatic bid.

    Considering they’re playing in Hartford, don’t bet against them.
