UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT MEN'S BASKETBALL HAD A STRONG START TO CONFERENCE PLAY.... BUT THAT WAS PUT TO THE TEST TODAY AGAINST A HOT SHOOTING U-M-B-C SQUAD. WELCOME INTO THE N-B-C FIVE SPORTS DESK. I'M NOAH CIERZAN.

With a pep rally, festivities on Church Street and a parade for UVM men's soccer team on Sunday this is what you need to know to get around.

And the humbling result? Vermont suffered its widest margin of defeat at home of coach John Becker's 14-year tenure. UMBC took control with its own big run and then cruised in the second half, riding red-hot shooting, to seize an 80-63 victory over the Catamounts in front of 2,537 at Patrick Gym.

The team won its title Dec. 16 after classes at UVM had ended for the semester, so the parade lets students and the community celebrate together.
