At Arlington, Texas:
Shabazz Napier scored 22 points on Monday night as the Connecticut Huskies (32-8), who were seeded #7 in the East Region, won their fourth NCAA Men's Division I Basketball National Championship, holding off the Kentucky Wildcats (29-11; seeded #8 in the Midwest Region) 60-54. The Huskies led by as many as fifteen points in the first half, only to see the Wildcats cut the deficit to one point on three separate occasions in the second half. It was Huskies' head coach Kevin Ollie's first NCAA crown in his first tourney appearance as a head coach.
