Stephen Curry gives UMBC new Under Armour shoes

PHOENIX — Count Warriors guard Stephen Curry among those jumping on the UMBC bandwagon. Two days after they became the first No. 16 seed in NCAA Tournament history to beat a No. 1 seed, the Retrievers tweeted their thanks to Curry for sending the school his unreleased new Under Armour shoes for the players to wear in Sunday's second-round game against Kansas State. UMBC is an Under Armour program, and Curry is one of the band's most prominent spokesmen. To comply with NCAA rules, he sent the shoes and other gear to the school, not the players directly. Curry, of course, has a sense of what awaits the Retrievers. A decade ago, he led No. 10 seed Davidson to the Elite Eight.
