After one final blowout, the college basketball season has ended. Overwhelmingly dominant UConn completed their blistering streak of wins this season with a 76-54 rout over Louisville to capture their sixth national championship. This season, the team won each of their 39 games by double digits, a first in college basketball. Star center Tina Charles posted 25 points and 19 rebounds last night. Connecticut coach Geno Auriemma seemed relieved, saying, "This is the first time since the brackets came out I didn't feel like I'm going to get sick, physically sick, thinking about everything that was ahead of us."
