The UConn women get back to work today when they play the College of Charleston in the opening round of the Gulf Coast Showcase at Germain Arena in Estero, Fla. The game is scheduled to tip at 8:30 p.m. and will be televised live on SNY.

The Huskies (2-1), who dropped to No. 3 in the latest Associated Press Top 25, are favored to win the eight-team event, which features Minnesota and Vanderbilt, among others.

Junior Breanna Stewart is off to a strong start, averaging 21 points and 8.7 rebounds per game while shooting 58 percent from the floor. Reserves Morgan Tuck (12.0) and Saniya Chong (10.7) are also averaging in double figures as is senior Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis (21.0), who is expected to return to the lineup tonight after missing Sunday's 96-60 win over Creighton due to illness.
