UConn achieved the rare feat of becoming back-to-back NCAA hoops champions. But even that doesn’t really hint at their two year dominance. “The Huskies won each of their 2024 NCAA tournament games by at least 14 points. A season ago, UConn won its six tournament games by at least 13 points.” UConn overwhelms Purdue in second half to win back-to-back national titles. (It was a double win for me as well. I had UConn winning in my March Madness bracket, and as a child, I shopped in the Husky section.)

+ “A major reason for the Huskies’ never-ending loop of NCAA tournament triumph is an assistant coach who has designed their unstoppable offense. He also happens to be Bill Murray’s son.” Bill Murray’s Son Designed UConn’s Offense. It’s No Joke. Here they are celebrating after the win.

+ While UConn’s rendition of Groundhog Day was a remarkable team achievement, this year’s NCAA tournament was all about the women. South Carolina’s championship win over Caitlin Clark, Iowa drew record 18.7 million viewers. “The broadcast peaked at 24 million viewers, and it was the most-watched basketball game at any level since 2019.”
