Every March, there’s a new team that catches the eyes and hearts of college basketball fans. In 2010, that team was Butler, who made its national statement just 10 miles from its campus, reaching the title game. Nine years later, people who were at those games and on those teams tell the story from their perspectives.
With its win over Wright State in the Horizon League Tournament championship game, Butler entered the NCAA Tournament having won a nation-leading 20 games in a row.
