The greatest team in Coast Guard men’s basketball history had the greatest run through the NCAA Division III Tournament in 2008.

It may not have ended with a championship, but it was incredibly memorable in so many ways.

We relive the Bears amazing upsets, the big baskets, and the defensive stands, as well as the final game of that season.

It was a wonderful ride. Tune in and savor the memories!
