UConn Women Defeat Louisville in NCAA Final

Last night, freshman Breanna Stewart led the UConn Huskies to their eighth national championship, defeating Louisville 93-60.  After missing the title game over the last two years, coach Geno Auriemma finally tied the renowned Pat Summit for the most NCAA championships in women's basketball history.  Stewart, with 23 points in title game, was awarded the Most Outstanding Player honors for the final four---only the fourth freshman to do so in the tournament's history.  This win was especially unique for the Huskies, as this was the first time that UConn failed to win a regular season or Big East tournament championship in conjunction with the NCAA title.  Congratulations to the Huskies and coach Auriemma!
