UMBC Retrievers Under Armour Curry 5

Just like that, the UMBC Retrievers' historic Cinderella run has come to an end, but not before the Under Armour-sponsored team got hooked up with Stephen Curry's latest.

Ahead of yesterday's second round loss to Kansas State, the UMBC men's team took to Twitter to show off a shipment of "Pi Day" Curry 5s for the whole team. 

The Retrievers made history Friday by ousting the Virginia Cavaliers, making UMBC the first No. 16 seed team to defeat a No. 1 seed in the men's college basketball tournament.

Under Armour released the "Pi Day" sneakers Thursday in celebration of Curry's birthday. The shoes, which retail for $130, sold out that night, but will be restocked April 14.

Thanks to @StephenCurry30 for hooking @UMBC_MBB up with unreleased shoes and new swag for tonight’s game! #curry5 #RetrieverNation @UnderArmour @UMBCAthletics pic.twitter.com/M6rfPcl6Mz
