The North Carolina Tar Heels are National Champions after a hard fought game against Gonzaga. It wasn’t always pretty, but they managed to get the job done. Considering everything the school has been through over the last year, this championship seems far more special than it otherwise would be.
The last few weeks have been terrifying, frustrating, and nerve-wracking, but now it’s over. Now it’s time to let loose and party. Here is a collection of the players and alumni celebrating the tonight’s win. How are you going to celebrate?
By yelling?
