PITTSBURGH — The incredible numbers keep adding up for No. 1 Connecticut, yet the Huskies only have one single goal in mind — raising the national championship trophy at the end of the season.

Tina Charles scored 24 points to become the sixth Connecticut player to reach 2,000 points in her career and the top-ranked Huskies coasted to their 60th consecutive victory, beating overwhelmed Pittsburgh, 98-56, yesterday.

"They all know what the goal is and what the final destination is," Connecticut coach Geno Auriemma said, referring to winning a seventh national title. "(There's) no streak talk, no numbers talk, no nothing. Let's get better."

Maya Moore, part of the inside-outside combination with Charles that has made these Huskies (21-0, 8-0 in Big East) one of the best teams in UConn's wildly successful history, added 22 points in a game that — as usual — was decided after only a few minutes.

Connecticut, now 10 victories away from matching its own NCAA women's record of 70 consecutive wins set in 2001-03, opened leads of 15-4 and 19-6 in the opening 5 1/2 minutes. After Pitt (12-8, 1-6) got to within eight points at 21-13, the Huskies went on a 14-2 run that made it 35-15 and erased any doubt whether this would be another Huskies romp.
