Links   Kansas managed to force OT with a last second 3-pointer, and then won the NCAA Championship in overtime over Memphis.  With the win, Henry McCabe completed the biggest upset victory in the Bonanza's four year history, coming from 18th place to win the 2008 title.  Chase Mallia, who had led most of the way, fell into fifth place in the final standings.  Congratulations to Henry.  Thank you all for playing, and see you in 2009!   Kansas 69 Memphis 73
