UConn Ends Prudential Center Skid After Fan Reportedly Hires Etsy Witch

Dan Hurley answered the viral witch story with tongue-in-cheek one-liners.

Overview

  • No. 3 UConn defeated No. 25 Seton Hall 69-64 in Newark on Tuesday.
  • The win snapped the Huskies’ four-game losing streak at the Prudential Center dating to 2021.
  • A UConn fan linked to the "Mediocre Dan" X account said a friend hired an Etsy witch named Sylvia to remove a perceived curse.
  • Sylvia claimed she performed a hex removal and placed a protective shield for the game, a claim reported as anecdotal.
  • Hurley joked about saging the court, holy water and garlic, and the result was reported as UConn’s 13th straight win to remain unbeaten in Big East play.
