ESPN.com

On Feb. 5, Diana Taurasi helped Connecticut win its fifth consecutive game against Tennessee as the Huskies handed the then-No. 1 Lady Vols an 81-67 loss in Knoxville.

Taurasi scored 18 points, including a 3-pointer that made her the career leader at Connecticut (230 treys), before fouling out in the last minute.

Taurasi now averages 22.3 points against Tennessee, and has never scored less than 12 points against Pat Summitt's crew. In six of their seven matchups, UConn has come out the winner.

A look at Taurasi's all-time stats against Tennessee:
