Renee Montgomery scored 20 points and No. 1 Connecticut raced to a 19-point lead in the first 5½ minutes en route to a 95-42 victory over No. 19 Pittsburgh on Sunday.
It was a special day for Montgomery as she became the first active player in UConn history to have her jersey put up in the Huskies of Honor. Her No. 20 is alongside such greats as Diana Taurasi, Sue Bird and Jennifer Rizzotti. Montgomery's only the 11th player to receive the honor.
Connecticut (25-0, 11-0 Big East) scored the game's first seven points before Shayla Scott hit a 3-pointer for Pitt. UConn then went on a 15-0 run that included five points by Montgomery to build a 22-3 lead just 5 minutes into the game.
Shavonte Zellous scored 16 points to lead the Panthers (18-5, 8-3), who never recovered and could only get within 16 points the rest of the game.
