It's down to the Final Four...
...members vying for the 2010 Young Family Bracket Challenge victory! In terms of the tournament, today, two teams punched their tickets to Indianapolis - both of which were upsets.
Butler defeated Kansas State to make its first Final Four in school history, and West Virginia took down Kentucky to make it to its first Final Four since 1959. Random tidbit: Butler's campus is 5 minutes away from the Final Four location... can someone say, home court advantage?!!
So there are only four members of the family that could take the challenge this year. Brad, Jacob, Nathaniel, and Teresa (Defending Champion). And tomorrow we'll find out who the final two people will be vying for the championship.
If Baylor wins tomorrow, the Bracket Challenge will come down to Brad and Nathaniel. If Baylor loses tomorrow, all four contenders are still alive! OH THE INSANITY!!!
So, Brad continues his lead in the Bracket Challenge, as he currently posts 168 points, while Nathaniel has separated himself from Jacob (for the time being) to take second place with 147 points. Robert (140 points) has sneaked up into third place but after the Kansas State loss is not in the running to win the Bracket Challenge as he and Nathaniel both have the same selections from here on out. Although this is his best performance in the bracket challenge yet!
Teresa is sitting comfortably in fourth place with 139 points while Lindsey Abbott has risen into FIFTH PLACE - her highest placement in the standings ever! - with 137 points. Jacob sits dangerously tied for sixth place with Jeremy with 127 points, anxiously awaiting the results of the Baylor/Duke game. Here is the complete list of standings:
1. Bradley Young - 168 points
2. Nathaniel Abbott - 147 points
3. Robert Young - 140 points
4. Teresa Matters - 139 points
5. Lindsey Abbott - 137 points
T6. Jacob Young - 127 points
T6. Jeremy Bird - 127 points
8. Allison Young - 122 points
9. Melissa Young - 114 points
10. Heather Abbott - 105 points
11. Eric Young - 98 points
12. Beth Bird - 77 points
There are two more games tomorrow to complete the Final Four docket... it could be down to only two people by Sunday night! Or it could still be between the four again... who knows?!
Everyone else, be prepared to send your money to one of those four people, and Teresa, get ready to ship out the trophy because you are NOT repeating! I won't allow it!!!
