UConn- Basketball Capital of the World

Last March Madness was epic for me, since I'm a die hard UConn fan.  UConn took home the title for both the women's and men's championships.  It was a crazy month of not sleeping, wearing Husky gear every day, and lots of screaming (I mean cheering.)

On October 17th it was time to celebrate with UConn's First Night extravaganza!  First Night is always a lot of fun, but this year it was incredible.  They brought out all 13 National Championship trophies, each brought out by a different UConn legend including Ray Allen and Sue Bird (one of my all time favorites!!!)  Both championship banners were unveiled and there was a coed scrimmage.  At the end of the night confetti rained down like it did at the end of the championship games and I got to walk across the court.  It was such an amazing night!
