Led by its fabulous freshman guards, Duke clawed its way back from a second-half deficit and stung Wisconsin 68-63 to claim the U.S. collegiate national championship on Monday.
Tyus Jones scored 19 of his game-high 23 points in the second half, and unsung first-year player Grayson Allen sparked the Blue Devils with 16 as Duke took the title in Indianapolis giving coach Mike Krzyzewski a fifth national championship. Krzyzewski is now second all-time to John Wooden who owns the record with 10 titles.
