2011 NCAA Championship
Being at the 2011 NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship game was like a dream for me.
I got to see the beautiful city of Houston for the 1st time and I ♥looooove♥ March Madness.
UConn defeated Butler 53-41. The game was a little lackluster. This comes from someone who grew up watching run and gun offenses of schools like UNLV and OU, the power and dunking of Georgetown, and teammates nicknamed for their finesse and flair 0f the Fab Five (Michigan) and Lethal Weopon 3 (GA Tech).
However, I did enjoy seeing UConn Coach Jim Calhoun become the oldest coach to win the NCAA championship (at age 68). You know how much I love my old guys! It was also great to see freshman guard Jeremy Lamb show off his ATL bball skills (he’s from my hometown in GA).
Being a mom of 2 boys, I’m glad my love for sports is coming in handy. Ya never know, I could be watching my boys in a NCAA Championship Game one day.
