HARTFORD — Amida Brimah scored a career-high 40 points and UConn snapped a three-game losing streak with a 106-85 rout of Coppin State. 

UConn's 7-foot center, who had never before scored more than 20 points in a game, made all 13 of his shots from the field, many of them dunks and hit 14 of his 16 foul shots. He also had 12 rebounds. 

Ryan Boatright added 22 points and Kentan Facey had 15, also a career best for UConn (4-3), which outscored an undersized Coppin State (1-9) 58-22 in the paint. 

Arnold Fripp had 25 points and nine rebounds before fouling out to lead Coppin State. Christian Kessee added 22. 

UConn started the game with an ally-oop pass from Boatright to Brimah and UConn, and went on a 13-2 run in the first two minutes of this game. 

They led 51-39 at the half, opened the second half on a 10-0 run and stretched the lead from there. 

UConn had not won a game since beating Dayton in the second round of the Puerto Rico Tip-Off Tourney on Nov. 21. The last two losses, to Texas and Yale, both came on 3-point shots in the closing seconds.
