UConn’s Hurley Draws $25K Fine From Big East

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Add another chapter to UConn coach Dan Hurley’s combative history with officials just as March Madness is approaching. Hurley was ejected from the fourth-ranked Huskies’ 68-62 loss to Marquette on Saturday after picking up two technical fouls with one second remaining. Hurley argued that UConn’s Silas Demary Jr. was fouled by Marquette’s Ben Gold while driving to the basket with the Huskies trailing 64-62. Hurley approached John Gaffney and got his chest next to the official’s right shoulder while voicing his displeasure. The Big East fined Hurley $25,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct.
