Head coach Geno Auriemma and the UConn Huskies are getting ready to take on their next opponent close to home. They will be facing the pesky 4-0 Michigan Wolverines at Mohegan Sun Arena in a top-six matchup, as the Wolverines are ranked No. 6 and the Huskies are ranked at No. 1.

This one should be a good game from start to finish as both teams have what it takes to win, but the Huskies should be able to get this one done. There are things they need to do to secure the victory over the Wolverines.

Getting the ball to arguably your best player on the court should be an easy recipe to getting a win over a top 6 ranked team. Her and Azzi Fudd are 1A and 1B on this UConn team and should be treated as such all year long.

Strong on the year is averaging 20.8 points per game, 8.8 rebounds per game, 5 assists per game, and a 61.1 made FG percentage. Those are quality numbers, and she is doing her part to help her team win games.

She needs to continue to get the ball and take shots. If the Huskies are wanting to beat as good of a team as Michigan, Strong needs the ball in her hands. It is as simple as that.

Wiliams is proving to be a key depth piece that can help Strong and Fudd out on the scoreboard. She is putting up double digits in points on a consistent basis and that is something…

Michigan celebrated matching its second-highest ranking in program history earlier this week with its most-lopsided win of the season (120-50 vs Binghamton). The Wolverines will almost certainly surpass their program-best No. 4 ranking in the next poll if they emerge from their visit to Mohegan Sun this weekend unscathed. Waiting for Michigan at the world’s most famous arena under a casino in Connecticut are the reigning national champions, who haven’t missed a beat while extending their win streak, which started in February, to 20 games.

This will be Michigan’s third encounter with an opponent ranked No. 1 in the AP poll since the start of last season when it lost to South Carolina by six points to open the 2024-25 campaign and UCLA by 16 points on New Year’s Day. Big Blue is 0-3 all-time against AP No. 1 opponents, with the loss before last season coming against Iowa in 1988. By contrast, UConn is 8-1 as the No. 1 team against teams ranked as highly as Michigan over just the last 10 seasons. What a wild comparison!

Michigan’s last win was its most lopsided, but the…

As interest in online gaming continues to surge in the state, a record amount of revenue was generated on the internet through casino-type games in October, the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board announced.

The $251,097,586 surpassed the previous high of $238,220,161 set in March, gaming board officials said.

Led by another boost from iGaming, the board reported $596,970,584 in combined total gaming revenue last month — a 20% increase over the total in October 2024, officials said.

“We continue to see month-over-month increases in iGaming,” said Doug Harbach, director of communications for the PGCB. “We saw record amounts of revenue being produced in both slot machines and tables for internet gaming. The good news is the increase, in particular, for online slots will continue to grow the fund that provides property tax reduction for homeowners every year.”

Locally, Mohegan Pennsylvania in Plains Twp. reported a 3% increase in total revenue, compared to the same time last year, taking in more than $19.4 million, board officials said. Mount Airy Casino Resort in Paradise Twp. experienced a 1.1% increase, generating $19.45 million.

Mohegan Pennsylvania experienced a 70.9% increase in sports wagering revenue in October while Mount Airy saw a 23.6% increase in retail table games revenue, officials said. Both casinos saw increased retail slot revenue in the month, with Mount Airy up 5% and Mohegan Pennsylvania up 0.5%.

“Mohegan and Mount Airy showed positive increases in the retail numbers for both slot machines and tables,” Harbach said. “They continue to do very well in generating business.”

Harbach noted that it’s difficult to predict when, or if, demand for internet gaming may subside and he believes there might even be further increases.

“I think we wonder whether iGaming will plateau or show some signs of slowing down at some point, but we haven’t witnessed…
