UConn Basketball Teams Back in The White House to Visit Obama

UConn women’s basketball squad must feel right at home in the White House, after they enjoyed their fourth visit in six years as NCAA Division I basketball national champions on Monday, USA Today reports.

This year they were also joined by the men’s squad, who came back from failing to pass the NCAA's Academic Progress Rate in 2013.

Obama and Stefanie Dobson, now of the Washington Mystics, used the opportunity to have the dance-off Dobson challenged the president to last year. It seems to have been a draw. Obama then consoled Dobson with a hug after she fell from the risers following the photo call in the East Room (see above video).

The Huskies have been the NCAA’s most frequent visitors to the White House during the last four presidential terms. "As President, one of my goals has been to eliminate waste and cut out duplicative programs to make things a little more efficient, but this might be carrying things a little too far," Obama joked in his opening remarks.
