The Purdue Boilermakers and UConn Huskies battle tonight for the NCAA Tournament Championship for men’s college basketball. Both teams are led by 7 footers in the paint. Purdue basketball center Zach Edey will lead the Boilermakers against Huskies center Donovan Clingan. Both are awesome players. It promises to be a throwback to the glory days when big men dominated the game of college basketball. Edey is a two time National Player of the Year and Clingan is playing so well NBA teams cannot wait to get their hands on him. He is more athletic than Edey and can take his game outside. But Zach Edey is an unmovable, unstoppable force inside.
CAITLIN CLARK
Meanwhile the great career of Caitlin Clark comes to an end as the Iowa Hawkeyes came up short in the women’s national championship vs the undefeated South Carolina Gamecocks Sunday. Clark and her legacy will be debated for years because she broke every individual scoring record along the way but finished 0-2 in national championships. There will always be those who say you need championship rings to be considered the greatest ever.
But two things cannot be denied. First, Clark brought more people to the game than any other player before her. And she was the greatest player we’ve ever seen at Locked on Big 10. Congrats to her on a great career and we look forward to her career continuing in the WNBA.
