STORRS, Conn. (AP) — Bria Hartley scored a career-high 29 points to help No. 2 Connecticut to a 78-57 win over eighth-ranked Notre Dame on Saturday.

Maya Moore added 12 points, seven rebounds and seven assists for the Huskies (26-1, 13-0 Big East), who have won 14 straight since their 90-game winning streak ended at Stanford on Dec. 30.

The Huskies, who spent a record 51 weeks atop the poll before that loss, will likely move back to No. 1 on Monday because top-ranked Baylor lost 56-45 to Texas Tech on Saturday.

Skylar Diggins scored 22 points and Natalie Novosel added 18 to lead Notre Dame (22-5, 11-2), which had its nine-game winning streak end.
