Stanford ends UConn's record winning streak
The record winning streak of the University of Connecticut's women's basketball team is over, ended by the school that was the last to beat it more than two years ago.
Stanford beat the top-ranked Huskies 71-59 on Thursday night in Palo Alto, California, halting UConn's winning streak at 90 games, the longest in NCAA Division I basketball history.
The loss comes just nine days after UConn, picking up its 89th consecutive win in a game against Florida State, surpassed the men's Division I streak of 88 set by coach John Wooden's UCLA teams from 1971 to 1974.
Jeanette Pohlen led the Cardinal (9-2) with 31 points. This season's record for two-time defending national champion UConn fell to 12-1.
"Congratulations to Connecticut for an awesome streak, and they gave us a great game," Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer (pictured) told ESPN. "Our team believed, our team came out and worked very hard."
UConn coach Geno Auriemma, when asked after the game what it would take to put together a similar streak in college basketball, told ESPN: "You’ve got to have good players, you’ve got to get lucky, and all your best players have to play great every night, and we didn’t get that tonight. And … the other team has to have something to do with it. ... They made us play bad, and they played well, so they deserve to win."
Just minutes after the game, Stanford's athletics website was linking to a site selling a T-shirt celebrating the victory. The T-shirt reads, in part: "All good things must come to an end."
UConn had moved the streak to 90 games on Tuesday with an 85-42 win over Pacific.
Stanford had been the last to defeat UConn, beating the Huskies in the Final Four in April 2008. UConn beat Stanford in last season's NCAA tournament championship game, 53-47.
The streak came years after UConn already had established itself as a top women's program. Of the 10 longest winning streaks in Division I women's basketball, the Huskies hold four, including the previous longest (70, from 2001 to 2003).

You came from between the legs of a Strong Woman, that would be your Mother. You slipped out of Her womb, slithered down Her V@gina and slid past Her slippery luscious Lips with your face covered in Her blood, the scent of Her smeared all over your little face. That's it, isn't it, boys? You just cannot stand all the Power of that Woman, your Mother, pushing you out into the world where your first taste was her V@gina. ROGLMFAO!!! ~the REAL Liberty Queen
they'll all be walking the streets before you know it.
but alas, she's a woman. so not really important at all. and anything attributed to her is probably the work of a decent man, willing enough to put up with her crap.
Bad form.
Way to go Tara VanDerveer and the Stanford Cardinal! Women's Basketball Breaking News is Good News!!!

I thought woman's basketball was part of the special olympics.
Ignore comment.

there's nothing woman are better at than men in basketball. period. if that were true they would be in the NBA. ~ the Real Liberty Queen
Great game I watched the whole thing and I been watching womens BBall for years. And any o you punk ass jackwagons that dont care should be on some other post with your candy ass comments. Congratulations to Stanford for a game well played.
semper fi.
Nighty night! LMFAO ~the REAL Liberty Queen
I like the headline on cnn.com. Sanford? As in Sanford and Son?
Is it just me or did the homepage on CNN just spell "Sanford", and not Standford?
Last week on the historic win the president called the UCONN coach to congratulate and the coach said "we haven't lost since you won the election" and now.....
the reason I watch woman's basket ball is because I (a) can't spell, as evidenced by my posts and (b) am a marine, and therefore gay. I also enjoy killing babies in countries I don't belong in. I should be hung and laughed at by every person in the middle east.
funny how those who 'claim' to not care jack their jaws (in this case their typing finger) the most
I hop Uconns coach (there are coaches in woman's darkie orange ball, right?) reads this to see what most of CNNs readers think of them.
My predictions for future women's NCAA basketball championships:
2011- UConn
2012- UConn
2013- UConn
2014- UConn
2015- UConn
2016- UConn
2017- UConn
2018- UConn
2019- UConn
2020- UConn
And thats why I mostly watch men's.
