Since 1939 the NCAA has been crowning a men’s basketball champion. It is one of the most coveted titles in college sports, and the championship tournament has become must-see TV in the United States. The first winner was Oregon, which defeated Ohio State in a closely contested game, 46–43. Since then more than 35 schools have claimed the title. However, one stands above all the others: UCLA. It has won a record-setting 11 championships. Second is Kentucky, with 8 titles. Next on the list are 6-time winners North Carolina and UConn.
