After the men’s basketball team’s Elite Eight victory over Purdue March 30, 600 dedicated student fans began preparations to make the trek to Minneapolis, Minn. to support the team in Saturday’s Final Four game. The team proceeded to win Saturday’s game against Auburn, and students who purchased the $40 student ticket for the Final Four game were given free tickets to Monday night’s national championship game against Texas Tech — which the Cavaliers won for the first time in program history. Standing between the students and the tournament, however, was an 18-hour drive to Minneapolis or costly flight tickets while missing at least two days of missed classes.
In the 2019 NCAA Tournament, the Virginia Cavaliers were the comeback kings. Virginia did not win its first national championship in program history with ease — it took tremendous resilience, which made it all the more spectacular.
Students celebrate on the Corner after U.Va. wins its first basketball national championship in school history.
On Monday night, Virginia won its first national basketball championship in school history. Few feelings could top the excitement, pride and love coursing through Charlottesville as students took to the streets to celebrate the long-awaited victory. In fact, I’m not sure any moments — even ones that are scripted — can compare to Monday night’s joy. And to prove that fact, I’ve compiled a list of contenders — some the most jubilant, powerful, iconic moments in film, television and music history — which all, alas, fall short.
A year ago, the Virginia men’s basketball team found itself in an unprecedented position as they were the first No. 1 seed to lose to a No. 16 seed in NCAA history. As the game winded down, the Cavaliers’ players sat chillingly still on the bench, helplessly watching the making of history. At the final buzzer, players were in tears and the world of college basketball had found a headline that would stick with Virginia for the next year. The UMBC taunts, the doubts about the Cavaliers’ ability to win in the tournament and the endless questions about how anyone could come back from such a loss all followed this team like a shadow.
Virginia has finally done it.
It was pure joy on the faces of Cavaliers players and fans as Virginia brought home the National Championship.

After Virginia’s Final Four victory over Auburn Saturday and national championship win over Texas Tech Monday, the Charlottesville Police Department blocked off vehicular traffic on the Corner, on Elliewood Avenue and 14th Street from University Avenue to Wertland Street.
The Virginia men’s basketball team certainly had its most successful season ever this year, winning the first national championship in program history. The Cavaliers will return a talented roster, but Coach Tony Bennett will have a difficult task on his hands replacing key players who have left for the NBA.
While my favorite team on Grounds is the women’s water-polo squad, my second favorite is the basketball team. U.Va. basketball not making it into the NCAA Tournament this year was a tragedy! After making it as far as the second round last year, I was hoping that we would make headway and at least get to the Sweet Sixteen. We were not so lucky. After accumulating a 5-11 ACC regular season record and finishing 12th in the ACC, the Cavaliers missed the cut off for tournament play.
A wild three weeks of basketball and an unforgettable season come to an end for Virginia Monday night. For the first time in school history, the Cavaliers get the chance to finish on top.
