Odyssey Sims' putback of her own miss pulled the Wings (9-15) within two late in the first quarter, but Tuck answered with a 3-pointer to spark a 25-11 spurt that gave Connecticut its biggest lead of the game, 42-26, with 3:30 left in the first half.

Sims led the eighth-ranked Wings with 20 points and eight assists. Courtney Paris added 14 points and 11 rebounds.
