ABC2 Sports Reporter Shawn Stepner caught up with UMBC forward Nolan Gerrity after the Retrievers returned home on Monday.
UMBC is fresh off a historic NCAA Tournament which saw them become the first No. 16 seed to ever defeat at No. 1 seed. The Retrievers beat top seed Virginia 74-54 on Friday night in the first round of the tournament.
Their Cinderella story came to an end in the second round when they lost to No. 9 Kansas State 50-43.
Gerrity caught the eyes of the nation when the broadcast cameras caught him dancing on the bench during both games.
