Connecticut won its first men’s basketball national championship in 1999 and has done pretty well since, securing back-to-back titles Monday night.

Purdue’s Zach Edey scores 37 points, but the Huskies shut down the rest of the Boilermakers to capture back-to-back national championships.

Caitlin Clark brought women’s basketball into the spotlight and South Carolina was a worthy opponent, finishing an undefeated season.

The top-ranked Huskies are seriously tested for the first time in the NCAA Tournament but advance to the championship game with their fifth straight double-digit win, 86-72.

Zach Edey leads the way with 20 points and 12 rebounds, and the Boilermakers end the Wolfpack’s surprising postseason run, 63-50.

The Gamecocks face women’s basketball’s biggest star on the biggest stage with an undefeated season and the national title on the line.

Hannah Stuelke scores 23 points, Caitlin Clark adds 21, and the Hawkeyes survive a late comeback bid by the Huskies, holding on for a 71-69 win.
