ORLANDO, Fla.

Cartell, who is in his first year at UCF, and Green, a senior at the school, both assisted members of the media covering the championship. Cartell helped the NCAA staff with postgame notes, while Green transcribed quotes for media members to utilize.
Tennessee claimed the national title, defeating Stanford in front of 21,655 fans in Tampa and a national television audience on ESPN on Tuesday.
