Villanova on Monday night became that occasional college basketball men’s national champion of such uncommon quality that it never did cause its fan base any of the customary bouts of March such as fear, dread or horror. The Villanova fans who streamed from the Alamodome into the bliss of a second national title in three seasons did so with projected life spans pretty much the same as they would have had if they ignored the NCAA tournament and missed their team’s six-game mow through it.
They, of course, had not. They had seen it through from their loud quadrant of the Final Four dome, among other places from here to that city of winners known as Philadelphia, and they had seen it right down to the mastery Villanova showed when it wriggled out of an early little thicket against Michigan and rode its superior skill to a 79-62 win. When the Wildcats sprang out of a 21-14 deficit that stood after nine minutes to lead 37-28 at halftime, they didn’t do so with the kind of dazzling blur they made in routing Kansas on Saturday night. They did it steadily and methodically if compellingly, because in their 36-win season, they reached a rare level of superbness.

A truck driver accused of smuggling dozens of immigrants across the U.S. border was charged Monday in what appears to be an organized operation that a passenger said had connections to a notorious Mexican gang.
Ten passengers died as a result of being trapped in the sweltering cargo bay of a tractor-trailer, where survivors said some had trouble breathing and passed out from the heat.
A criminal complaint stated that James M. Bradley Jr., 60, who has been charged with illegally smuggling foreigners for “commercial advantage or private financial gain,” drove a trailer filled with more than 100 immigrants up I-35 into San Antonio as temperatures soared into the triple-digits. Prosecutors said Bradley knew the trailer’s refrigeration system did not work, and did not stop as the immigrants frantically banged on the trailer’s walls and shouted for help.

Two men are dead in a shooting at a military base in San Antonio, Texas, authorities said.
The attack at Lackland Air Force Base, a part of Joint Base San Antonio, appears to be a murder-suicide, Bexar County Sheriff’s Office spokesman James Keith told MSNBC. The base said in a statement that there were no indications it was related to terrorism.
The gunfire was reported at about 8:40 a.m. local time, and when police and security officers arrived, they found the victims dead in an office in a building known as Forbes Hall, authorities said. Two Glock firearms were found at the scene.

Davy Villanueva hoped the fish would be biting when he went out to the San Antonio River a few weeks ago, but he never imagined he’d see a tooth bigger than the size of his two fists.
The Karnes City, Texas, fisherman found what he believes is a tooth from a mastodon, the big-tusked behemoths that roamed North America as far back as 3.75 million years ago, according to Illinois State Museums. The mammoth-related beasts became extinct 11,000 years ago.
