2010 March Madness

2010 March Madness

This year’s NCAA Tournament is exactly why it’s been called  March Madness.

The final between the Butler Bulldogs and the Duke Blue Devils was one of the hardest contested championships in recent memory. Considered by many to be a game of David vs Goliath, Butler showed that great basketball teams can come from any league, and just because you come from a small school doesn’t mean you should be intimidated. All of Duke’s history and success in the NCAA Tournament meant nothing to Butler, who was 1 possession away from one of the biggest upsets in NCAA Finals history. Unfortunately, as tough as Butler played, Duke had an answer for everything and claimed their 4th title under Coach K by a mere 2 points.

Congratulations to the 2010 NCAA College Basketball Champion Duke Blue Devils
