UConn won both the men's and women's 2014 NCAA National Championships ! Neither team has lost a National Championship once they have appeared in that game. College basketball fans are used to seeing this on the women's side from head coach Geno Auriemma. Auriemma led his most recent lady Huskies squad to a 40-0 record. Meanwhile 2nd year coach former NBA point guard and former UConn point guard Kevin Ollie led his school on an amazing run. As a 7th seed in the East, beat #2 Villanova in the 3rd round after being down 10, knocked off #4 Michigan State in the Elite 8 after being down double digits and in the National Semifinal #1 Florida. Then UConn would beat Kentucky and the best freshmen class since the Michigan Fab Five for the National Championship. Storrs, Connecticut is basketball heaven. For the men it's their 4 title since 1999. Obviously this season the lady Huskies were untouchable knocking off Notre Dame (another undefeated team) to cut down the nets in Nashville, Tennessee. Meanwhile the men improved to 3-0 in the state of Texas after cutting down the nets in Arlington, Texas.
