UNC Earns Sweet Redemption with Gritty NCAA Championship Win over Gonzaga

GLENDALE, Ariz. — Roy Williams leaned against a railing on the stage at center court and watched the "One Shining Moment" montage between his wife Wanda and grandchildren.
As soon as Luke Maye's last-second shot against Kentucky in the Elite Eight fell through the basket on the big screen, Williams threw his arms into the arm and screamed "Yeah!"
That's the shot that will live in Carolina history.
On Monday night inside University of Phoenix Stadium, where North Carolina finished off Gonzaga 71-65, there was no shot. No beauty, even. Mostly just whistles and muck, a national championship hard on the eyes.
