Storrs, Conn. • Connecticut has its swagger back.

Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis led six UConn players in double figures, and the top-seeded Huskies routed Idaho 105-37 on Saturday in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

The win follows two losses to Notre Dame this month that left the Huskies without Big East regular-season or tournament titles for the first time in 20 years.

"I wanted them to understand that this was the beginning of our third season," coach Geno Auriemma said. "Let's put everything behind us. And I think we did."

Mosqueda-Lewis finished with 22 points, all in the first half. Morgan Tuck had 18, Moriah Jefferson chipped in 16, and Kiah Stokes scored 14 points and grabbed 11 rebounds.

The Huskies (30-4) advanced to the second round for the 20th straight time in their 25th consecutive tournament appearance.

UConn led by as many as 74 in the second half before Idaho made five 3-pointers in the last 4 minutes, four by Barr.
