STORRS, Conn.- Early runs proved costly as the St. John's baseball team dropped the series finale to No. 25 Connecticut, 10-0, at Elliot Ballpark on Sunday afternoon.

David Glancy and Chris Conniff each logged a hit against the Huskies (24-7, 3-0). Glancy has now recorded a base knock in three straight starts.

UConn's Enzo Stefanoni picked up the win, tossing seven shutout innings with two punchouts.

Sonny Fauci was tagged with the loss for St. John's (11-21, 0-3).

For the third straight game, Erik Stock got the Huskies on the board first in the opening inning with an RBI groundout to the shortstop to give Connecticut an early 1-0 lead.

UConn opened the game up in the bottom of the second with five runs to expand the advantage to 6-0. Bryan Padilla drew a bases-loaded walk before Stock launched a grand slam to right to give the Huskies a six-run cushion.

Connecticut added two more runs in the home half of the third to lead 8-0. Ben Huber scampered home from third on a wild pitch before Korey Morton roped a single to right to plate Matt Donlan.

After a scoreless fourth, the Huskies tacked on one more in the fifth courtesy of another RBI single from Morton to expand the lead, 9-0.

A frame later, Stock scored on another wild pitch to grow the UConn advantage to 10-0 in the sixth.

Stefanoni, Devin Kirby, Bobby McBride and Garrett Coe combined to secure the final nine outs to give Connecticut the series sweep and improve the record to 3-0 in BIG EAST play.

The Red Storm will return to action on Tuesday afternoon when it makes the short trip to Hempstead, N.Y., to wrap up the home-and-home midweek series with the Hofstra Pride. First pitch from University Field is set for 3 p.m.
