The No. 1-ranked UConn women's basketball will play its first top-10 matchup of the season against No. 9 Michigan on Friday at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut.

Michigan coach Kim Barnes Arico has beaten UConn before. In 2012, when she was at St. John's, the Red Storm stopped the Huskies' 99-game home winning streak.

"Based on the little bit I've seen of Michigan, they will be, for sure, the best team we play this year by a long shot at this time in the season," UConn coach Geno Auriemma said after the Huskies beat another Big Ten opponent, Ohio State, on Sunday. "They're talented, they're smart, they're well-balanced, they play exceptionally well together."

Sophomore forward Sarah Strong is averaging 20.5 points, 8.8 rebounds and 5.0 assists and senior guard Azzi Fudd 17.8 points and 4.5 assists to lead Connecticut.

Olivia Olson leads the Wolverines with 17.8 points per game. Five players are averaging double-digit points.

UConn is 45-1 all-time at Mohegan Sun Arena. UConn is 135-56 all-time in games where both teams are ranked in the top 10. This is the first meeting between UConn and Michigan.
