Kemba Walker, the University of Connecticut senior guard has carried the Huskies all season. UConn came into the 2011 Big East Tournament as a #9 seed. Pittsburgh came in with a double bye prior to Thursday's game and they were the number #1 seed. Pitt opened up a double digit lead in the first half at Madison Square Garden. However Walker and the Huskies have done what they have done all season long, make a strong comeback. Walker helped UConn start the season winning the Maui Invitational while defeating a pair of ranked teams in the process. With the game tied at and a spot in the Big East seminfinals at stake, Pitt was caught in a switch. During the switch Walker was guarded by a big man. Game set match point, swish. UConn defeats Pitt as time expires. Friday, the Huskies will play their 4th game in 4 days vs. Syracuse. The Orange defeated the hometown St. John Red Storm.
