Mason, Ohio — Top seed UConn won its opener in the Big East Conference baseball tournament on Thursday, beating No. 4 Georgetown 4-0.

Georgetown swept the Huskies in a three-game series last weekend.

Austin Peterson pitched seven innings for the win, striking out eight with four walks and allowing four hits. Korey Morton was 2-for-4 with two RBI for the Huskies.
