ARLINGTON, Texas- The University of Connecticut Huskies beat the University of Kentucky Wildcats Monday night 60-54 at the AT & T Stadium in Arlington, Texas to win its fourth men's NCAA Championship and second in four years. The loss denied Kentucky coach John Calipari his second championship in three years.

Kentucky, who beat Louisville in the Sweet Sixteen and then Michigan to take on UConn for the final game of the championship series, has won eight men's basketball championships, the second-most in the NCAA's Division I behind UCLA. UConn's women's basketball team also won the NCAA title, beating Notre Dame 79-58.

The two wins for UConn mark the first time in history that both the men and women basketball teams have won the championship titles in the same year. (www.clevelandurbannews.com) /
