Twitter Reactions: Providence Takes Home Its First Big East Regular Season Title
Creighton never had a shot in this one. Behind seven 3-pointers from AJ Reeves, Providence controlled their home finale from beginning to end, taking home a 72-51 victory and winning the Big East regular season title for the first time in school history.
Here is some of the reaction from Twitter:

Absolutely unreal!!! What an amazing scene at the Dunk! In the 25 years since I graduated, I’ve never been more proud to be a Friar. What an incredible group of young men, led by the perfect man to coach them. Man, I can’t imagine what campus is going to be like tonight…

The Providence Friars.
Founding members of the Big East.
And tonight, for the first time in program history, regular-season champions of that league.
Ed Cooley has to be in the top spot, as of now, for national coach of the year.

We are celebrating big time tonight in #RivalsNation. AJ Reeves with 7 threes as Providence College clinches the Big East Championship. Nine years ago we predicted this 8th grader with the big smile would be something special. What a game. What a night for the Mass Rivals.

Nate Watson, with tears in his eyes, finishes cutting down the nets.
Watson came back for a fifth year because he wanted to finish his career at the Dunkin' Donuts Center.
He leaves a champion.
