Vital makes key steal, UConn upsets No. 15 Florida 62-59

STORRS, Conn. (AP) — Christian Vital scored 15 points and made a key late steal and UConn upset No. 15 Florida 62-59 on Sunday.

Tyler Polley also scored 15 points, and Josh Carlton added 13 for the Huskies (2-1).

A layup by Florida’s Keyontae Johnson with just over a minute to go cut the lead to 60-59, but those would be the last points the Gators scored. Vital hit two free throws with 17 seconds left and Florida had a chance to tie. But Alterique Gilbert tipped the ball out of Johnson’s hands and Vital grabbed it and dribbled away.

Kerry Blackshear Jr. had 15 points and eight rebounds for Florida (2-2).
