MILWAUKEE -- Alex Karaban and Cam Spencer shot a combined 10 of 16 from three-point range and No. 2 UConn defeated No. 8 Marquette 74-67 on Wednesday night, giving the Huskies their first road win over an Associated Press Top 25 team in a decade.
UConn (27-3, 17-2) hadn't defeated a ranked team in a true road game since 2014. The Huskies beat ranked Memphis teams at the FedEx Forum twice that year, in January and again two months later in the American Athletic Conference Tournament. Memphis was technically the visiting team on its home floor during the AAC Tournament game as the lower seed.
This marked UConn's first road win over a top-10 team since a 93-82 triumph at No. 8 Marquette on Feb.
