Standings in GopherHole NCAA Bracket Competition after 3-18 Games

[Rick Mons]

The best any of us could do is 13 correct picks out of 16 possible picks. Seven hit that mark ... we have one poor soul who was able to get only 7 of the 16 picks correct.

Hang in there, folks, there's another day of possible upsets ahead! And, if the list below is too daunting to search for a name, the second post lists all participants alphabetically with their current place.

Standings below. In this first round, you receive one point for each correct pick. The number of "points possible" is if the teams you've picked were to win all the following games including the championship. As we get further along, we may find what we saw last year: folks in relatively high places had "peaked out" because they had picked teams that were no longer in the tournament to go further into the later rounds.
