No. 4 Syracuse, a famous participant and winner of the epic 6 overtime game between the Orangemen and the Huskies of Connecticut a year ago, were back at it again. However this time, they're come from behind win over fellow Big East competitor Georgetown(No. 11), was kept in the parameters of regulation but would be overshadowed by a storied career.
Coach Jim Boeheim achieved his 819th career win, passing current coaching legend Jim Calhoun(Connecticut) for sixth all time in Division 1. Coach Boeheim's 34 year career is marked with an astonishing 32 20+ win seasons, with 25 tournament appearances as well as 1 National Championship. And did I mention it was his alma mater? To this day, Boeheim is one of the very rare individuals who has spent their entire college basketball career, from player to assistant coach to head coach, at one university.
Congrats, Coach!
