There was no stopping the Connecticut Huskies, as they are making their 5th National Championship appearance since 1999.

I don’t remember the exact number, but the broadcast mentioned that Miami had missed something like 15 layups.  Every drive to the basket was contested.  The Hurricanes managed to cut the lead from 20 down to 8, but it never got closer, as the Huskies cruised to a 72-59 victory.

Adama Sanogo finished with 21 points, as the Hurricanes had no answer for the big man.  Jordan Hawkins added 13 points, but the real story was the Huskies defense.

Congratulations to the UConn Huskies as they will play for their 5th National Championship – if I heard right from the broadcast, they have not lost a game in the Final 4 in any of their 5 appearances.  And their last 3 titles were all won in the state of Texas.

So, we will have the 4th seeded Connecticut Huskies playing for their 5th title since 1999 against the 5th seeded San Diego State Aztecs, who are playing in their first ever national championship game.
