Fourth seed UConn advanced to the NCAA men’s basketball championship game following a 72-59 win over No. 5 Miami in the Final Four on Saturday.
It will be the first NCAA national championship game for the UConn Huskies since 2014.
The Huskies got off to a quick start Saturday, going up 9-0 within the first five minutes of the game. The Miami Hurricanes tried to come crawling back into the game but ultimately the shots did not fall for the team. Up 10 points, UConn forward Alex Karaban knocked down a three-pointer at the buzzer to give the Huskies a 37-24 lead heading into the half.
UConn’s strong start continued in the second half, extending the lead to 20 points before the Hurricanes’ shots started to fall. Miami cut the lead down to 10 points again before the Huskies regained momentum.
Huskies star center Adama Sanogo, who has been observing Ramadan and said earlier he would be eating oranges and coconut water before tip-off, was his dominant self. He finished with a game-high 21 points and 10 rebounds. Guard Jordan Hawkins, who was questionable to play with a non-Covid illness, added 13 points.
UConn head coach Dan Hurley gave all the credit to his coaching staff and players for the team’s success.
“I’m just happy I was able to attract the right type of people to put me in this position,” Hurley told the CBS broadcast. “The coaching staff, these amazing players and I appreciate obviously the University of Connecticut. They took a chance on a guy that was a high school coach not too long ago. What a blessing and incredibly grateful. … We’ve been striving for five for a while.”
Earlier Saturday, No. 5 San Diego State stunned No. 9 Florida Atlantic at the last second to win 72-71 and advance to its first NCAA title game. Trailing 71-70 with less than two seconds left in the game, Aztecs guard Lamont Butler hit a pull-up jumper at the buzzer to propel the school to the national championship game.
The Huskies now look to win the program’s fifth national championship when they face off with San Diego State on Monday evening at NRG Stadium in Houston.

It’s the best time to make some plans for the future
and it is time to be happy. I have read this post and if I could I want to suggest you some interesting things or tips.
Perhaps you can write next articles referring
to this article. I desire to read more things about it!
Can you tell us more about this? I’d like to find out some
additional information.
I’ve been browsing online greater than 3 hours today,
but I never discovered any attention-grabbing article like yours.
It is beautiful value sufficient for me. In my view, if all web
owners and bloggers made good content as you probably did, the
net will likely be a lot more useful than ever
before.
Howdy, i read your blog from time to time and i own a similar one and i was
just curious if you get a lot of spam remarks? If so how do you prevent it,
any plugin or anything you can recommend? I get
so much lately it’s driving me mad so any help is very much appreciated.
Wow, superb blog layout! How long have you been blogging for?
you make blogging look easy. The overall look of your site is fantastic, as well as the content!
The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it
can survive a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.
I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
When I initially commented I seem to have clicked the -Notify me when new comments
are added- checkbox and from now on whenever a comment is added I
get 4 emails with the same comment. Perhaps there is a means you can remove me from that service?
Thank you!
