UConn emphatically won a second straight NCAA tournament on Monday night.
The Huskies pulled away from Purdue in the second half on the way to a 75-60 win over the Boilermakers. The victory makes UConn the first team since Florida in 2006 and 2007 to win back-to-back men’s basketball national titles.
UConn is an especially dominant back-to-back champion, too. The Huskies won each of their 2024 NCAA tournament games by at least 14 points. A season ago, UConn won its six tournament games by at least 13 points.
