It’s what UConn has to deal with. They’ll finally return to the court for the first time since Dec. 29 when they host Providence this afternoon in Gampel Pavilion. Providence (5-6, 3-3 Big East) has managed to avoid any COVID-19 shutdowns thus far, as a result playing the most games of any school in the conference. They’re 1-2 in their last three games with losses to Xavier (64-50) and Seton Hall (77-71) and a win Thursday over Butler (62-50). With a win, Geno Auriemma will tie Pat Summitt’s mark of 1,098 career wins, which is second on the sport’s all-time wins list behind Stanford’s Tara VanDerveer (1,104).
