KANSAS WINS NCAA BASKETBALL TITLE

 

The Kansas Jayhawks completed the largest comeback ever in the history of the NCAA Championship game with a 72-69 win over the North Carolina Tar Heels on Monday night in the Superdome in New Orleans. 

 

It was the school's fourth championship in men's basketball and their first since the 2007-08 season as Head Coach Bill Self gets a second title since coming to the school back in 2003. The Jayhawks overcame a 16-point deficit as the Tar Heels coughed up the big lead, which included a 40-25 halftime edge. 

Kansas stormed back by a 47-29 count in the second half, thanks in part to a pressure defense and clutch shooting while holding UNC to just under 25 percent from the floor in the decisive second half to get the close win and capture the championship. 

 

   Congratulations to the KANSAS JAYHAWKS - 2021-22 NCAA Basketball Champions !
