Author Description

North Carolina State's 1983 NCAA championship still ranks as one of the true Cinderella stories in the history of college basketball. Coached by legendary Jim Valvano, the Wolfpack had been a long shot to even make the tournament. As a low seed, they went on a wild six-game win streak that culminated with a last second upset over Houston's team in the national championship game. At the time, Valvano's team was the lowest-seeded team to ever win a national title. This book, told through the eyes and memories of several players and coaches from that team, takes readers back through the magical month of March 1983.
