The University of Connecticut (UConn) men's basketball team ended Butler's Cinderella run last night, holding the No. 8-seed Bulldogs to a paltry 18.8 shooting percentage in a 53-41 win in the NCAA Tournament final at Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas. UConn pulled away in the second half for its 11th consecutive win, a streak that includes five straight wins to take home the Big East Tournament title. Junior Kemba Walker, the tournament's Most Outstanding Player, led the Huskies with 16 points. UConn coach Jim Calhoun won his third NCAA championship, becoming at age 68 the oldest coach to win a title.
