Top-seeded UConn wasn't going to let Terrence Shannon Jr. spoil its chances of becoming the first team in 17 years to win back-to-back national championships.Shannon had scored at least 25 points in each of his previous seven games, but the Huskies held him to just eight on Saturday while also opening the second half on a 25-0 run to coast to a 77-52 victory over third-seeded in the Elite Eight.Shannon struggled all night against UConn (35-3), making just 2 of 12 shots from the floor in 36 minutes of action. While slowing down Shannon was a team effort, Huskies coach Dan Hurley gave a lot of credit to Stephon Castle, a freshman tasked with guarding a fifth-year senior.
