Women's basketball news, commentary, photos and video. The site primarily focuses on professional leagues in the United States and abroad, Division I and college signings of high school players. It also provides an archive of hoopfeed's Twitter stream (http:/twitter.com/hoopfeed) as well as a monthly summary of major story lines in women's basketball.

Connecticut’s monumental win to tie the Division I basketball winning streak record was the lead story of the weekend. In the second game of the double-header Maggie Dixon Classic, the No. 1 team in the nation beat No. 11 Ohio State 81-50 on Sunday afternoon in front of a crowd of 15,232 at Madison Square Garden. The win marked the 88th straight victory for the Huskies, matching a record set by the John Wooden-led UCLA men from 1971-74.

The team is already the leader in the rankings for longest winning streaks in NCAA women’s basketball history.

Tiffany Hayes led UConn with 26 points and Maya Moore added 22.

Other top 25 scores from Sunday:

No. 6 Tennessee 82, No. 3 Stanford 72, OT
