From the very beginning, it was SMU’s game. UConn made little pushes and runs but could never come close enough to truly threaten the Mustangs, and SMU never trailed.

The Mustangs had three players in double digits as they easily handled No.21 UConn Sunday for a 64-55 victory.

The Huskies won their last four games and 10 of their last 12.

However, SMU seems to have UConn’s number and is now 4-0 all-time against the Huskies and secured a season sweep with Sunday’s victory.

Nic Moore and Nick Russell led the way for the Mustangs; combining for 30 points and nine assists.

Moore and Russell were two of the three Mustangs to score in double digits as Markus Kennedy turned in another solid performance — finishing with 13 points and seven rebounds.

Russell had 15 points, two rebounds and four assists. However, his biggest contribution was his lethality from the three point range.

Every time UConn began to show signs of a rally, Russell was there to answer from the three point range.

He finished the night with a career high in three-pointers made, three, and the sixth time this season he has hit multiple threes.

Once again, Moore was a constant source of offense; his 15 points and five assists paced the Mustangs offense and kept a distance between SMU and UConn.

The Mustang defense was as stingy as always, limiting the Huskies to 16 buckets and 30 percent shooting from the floor.

The Huskies also had three players score in double figures: Ryan Boatright and Shabazz Napier both had 15 points while Niels Giffey had 11.

Boatright and Giffey combined for four of UConn’s six three-pointers.

SMU now sits at 22-6 overall and 11-4 in AAC play. Their 22 wins marks the fifth highest win total in program history and the most total wins for an SMU team since the 1999-00 season.

Up next for the Mustangs is a two game home stand at Moody Coliseum. SMU will get things started with a game against UCF Saturday.
