UNC National Champions (From Agony To Celebration)

Monday night in Glendale, Arizona (Phoenix) ended totally different for the North Carolina Tar Heels. In comparison to how the first Monday night in April down in Houston, Texas ended for them in 2016. After Marcus Paige incredible double clutch 3 point jump shot that tied the title game a year ago. Kris Jenkins won it all for Villanova at the buzzer. North Carolina on Saturday escaped Oregon by one on the strength of two late game offensive rebounds off a pair of free throw misses. The Tar Heels advanced from the Final Four on Saturday to the title game on Monday night. Gonzaga was in search of their 1st National Championship in school history. Instead North Carolina won their 6th title and 3rd under head coach Roy Williams. Gonzaga made a late game run, however UNC was able to hold them off. Obviously last year title game defeat fueled this team all season. Now they are back on top of the college basketball world.
