The 6-foot-7 sophomore scored 22 of his career-high 27 points in the second half and overtime to lift the Cavaliers to their first national title. Hunter shot 8-for-16 from the field and 7-for-9 on free throws and also had nine rebounds.

Turning Point

Ty Jerome drove to the basket and kicked out to an open Hunter in the corner, and Hunter's three-pointer with 12.9 seconds left in regulation tied the score 68-68 before Virginia survived a couple of late Texas Tech shots to go to OT.
