This is a great story for multiple reasons:
* This is the first time in the history of the 64 team tournament (30+ years) that a #16 seed has beaten a #1 seed.
* The key player for UMBC in the victory was a 5’7”, 150 pound point guard.
* Virginia coach Tony Bennet was the epitomy of class in defeat.

A great moment for the sport.

I recorded all games but skipped UVA until the broadcasters in the game I was watching hinted an upset in the making

So I went and watched it without knowing the final outcome but wish I had watched history without the heads up

UMBC had a couple hours of cute cheerleaders ....besides beating the crap outta Overall No. One

Still a pretty good singer too.
