NCAA has a back-to-back champion after 17 years
Following a 75-60 victory over No. 1 seed Purdue, UConn made history by becoming the first team since Florida in 2006 and 2007 to secure two consecutive college basketball championships.
With six national titles in the past three decades, UConn now shares the third spot in the all-time titles list with North Carolina, trailing behind only Kentucky (eight) and UCLA (eleven).
UConn dominated Purdue
Everyone expected the final to be a close one but UConn had other ideas as they decimated Purdue in one of the most one-sided finals in the history of the NCAA.
The Boilermakers were slower, less effective from the field, and less resilient on defense than UConn, who maintained a close lead until the early stages of the second half when the game began to slip away from them.
If not for Zach Edey from Purdue, the margin of the loss could have been even more. The Canadian giant scored 37 out of 60 points for Purdue.
