March Madness indeed... WOW!

Well... the evening started with SYRACUSE falling to the Butler Bulldogs. That's three more people's National Champion selections to fall as Teresa, Melissa and Jeremy each had the Orange cutting down the nets in Indy. WOW! Then, on top of that, Kansas State survived a 2-OT game against Xavier to make it to the Elite 8. There have been some great games in this tournament! Sucky games for our brackets, but good...

But before I list the standings, I want to leave you with a quote from defending Young Family Bracket Challenge winner, Teresa Matters, gave me via text message after the Syracuse loss.

"F*CKIN' BUTLER!"

Amen, sister... Amen.


Now to the standings... Brad leads still leads (133 points) after correctly predicting three of the four games tonight correctly. The big move today, however, was from Jacob Young, who also predicted three of the four games correctly, and moved into second place with 112 points!!! Jacob is in a good position and could possibly take the entire Challenge in just his first appearance (medically unavailable in 2009).

1. Bradley Young - 133 points
2. Jacob Young - 112 points
3. Teresa Matters - 109 points
T4. Allison Young - 107 points
T4. Jeremy Young - 107 points
6. Robert Young - 105 points
7. Nathaniel Abbott- 97 points
8. Lindsey Abbott- 87 points
9. Heather Abbott- 85 points
10. Melissa Young- 84 points
11. Eric Young - 83 points
12. Beth Bird - 62 points

Now, I know everyone (except for me) is sick of seeing me on top of the standings, but don't you worry... it's possible that when the Final Four is announced, I will finally fall out of the top of the standings... unless the small schools win, ha!

INTERESTING NOTE! Nathaniel is the ONLY person who could get 3/4 of the games tomorrow... he is the only person who has three teams alive for tomorrow's games. He could make a big push tomorrow!

March is craaaaazy!
