UCONN's women's basketball program is where it belongs – on the mountain peak.
The Huskies won the 12th National Championship, all of which have been around since 1995, when the South Carolina State champion champion was blown away on Sunday afternoon.
In her final game before heading to the WNBA, the Page Bookers scored 17 points for UConn's 82-59 Gamecocks.

The Husky led by 10 in half as South Carolina struggled from the floor. He scored just 26 points in his first 20 minutes.
However, Azzi Fudd began clawing the co in the third quarter, dropping 11 of the 24 points into the frame. Uconn, who outperformed the 26-16 Gamecocks despite the highest scored quarter for South Carolina, also took a 20-point lead towards fourth.
The Husky stepped into the pedals, but came out with an 18-6 run to open the quarter, effectively representing the ball game. South Carolina then took out the starter, even with her big hand.
Bueckers and Fudd came out at 1:32 along with the starter. The Bueckers made each final four of her career, but did not reach the top until Sunday.

It was a shooting performance that South Carolina wanted to forget – before knocking two of the last three, they hit 13-for-2 from three. However, UConn shot 48.4% from the floor.
The Bueckers could be their first overall pick in the WNBA draft next week. She missed the season in the torn ACL that she struggled in 2022, but she still goes down as one of UConn's biggest. This is already an immortal company.
19.9 points per game is the largest in UConn history and is the third most in women's March madness history throughout their career.

In fact, it's been nine years since UConn's last title. This is their longest drought since they won the back 30 years ago. They had never been there for more than five years before without winning everything (2004-2009).
