Back-to-Back, Baby!

Syracuse becomes just the third team to win back-to-back Big East basketball championships with tonight's magical 65-61 win over Pitt.

Gerry McNamara put an exclamation point on his stellar career at 'Cuse this week by bringing home this championship for the #9-seeded Orange--having scored two game-winning baskets and a game-winning assist in the first three games of this tournament. And then tonight, more stellar play from G-Mac--plus the emergence of Josh Wright, who made four straight free throws to seal the win (they were the only points he scored).

Special props to freshman guard and G-Mac heir apparent, Eric Devendorf. Whoo-hoo, Go Orange!
