It was a two-for-one celebration at the White House as the University of Connecticut men's and women's basketball teams met with President Obama marking both squads NCAA Championships last season.
Obama welcomed the two basketball teams Monday and all of the excitement — or more likely a pair of stiletto heels — almost knocked Stefanie Dolson off her feet.
As the players stood on risers while the President spoke and congratulated the coaches, the 6'5" Dolson lost her footing and fell off.
Thanks to some quick steps with her arms out, the now nearly seven-foot Huskies center was able to avoid a total wipeout in her five-inch heels.
And no, she wasn't taking a selfie.
It was a proud day otherwise for UConn as this is only the second time a school has won both titles in the same year.
