For the second straight year the University of Florida Gators are college basketball National Champions and last night's victory against the Ohio State Buckeyes was largely thanks to the performance of star power forward Al Horford. Horford scored 18 points, snatched 12 rebounds, had 3 assists and provided a much-needed spark as the Gators repeated as National Champs, a feat last achieved by the 1991-1992 Duke Blue Devils. On hand to watch Horford was his father, former NBA player Tito Horford and Dominican Sports Minister Felix Payano. During post-game celebrations and interviews Horford was seen proudly waving a Dominican flag in honor of his heritage. This is the second time that a Dominican has played an important role in a national championship. Charlie Villanueva helped the UConn Huskies win the national championships in 2004.
