Steph Curry gives unreleased shoes to UMBC after historic upset

Friday was a historic day in sports. In the opening round of the men’s NCAA Tournament, UMBC (that’s University of Maryland, Baltimore County) knocked off Virginia to become the first 16-seed to ever win a game in the men’s tourney.

Not only did UMBC make history, but they did so against the number one overall seed, and one of the strongest teams in recently March Madness memory. Not only that, but they won by 20 points. 20!!!

It was a truly incredible day, and one of the most memorable and exciting upsets in sports history.
