Jim Calhoun, has seen plenty of positive moments since he's been head basketball coach of the University of Connecticut program. Calhoun has led the Huskies to a pair of National Championships in 1999 & 2004 respectively and 3 Final Four appearances most recently in 2009. Calhoun has also won several Big East Tournament titles. However the 2010-11 UConn Huskies were led by senior guard Kemba Walker, a player from the Bronx that's in the conversation for Big East and National Player Of The Year awards. Walker has set a conference tournament record for most points scored in a single tournament, while assisting UConn to a five games in five days run. Saturday night in Madison Square Garden, UConn defeated Louisville to make history. The Huskies were victorious Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Many fans will remember the game winning shot Walker hit vs. Pitt to send his team to the semifinals. Sunday UConn will find out where they'll be seeded and playing come NCAA Tournament time.
