Congrats to Lawrence M (Bizarro Larzby) for winning the 2009 HWCI NCAA Pool.  With a 16 point lead, he is guaranteed to finish first after Michigan St. won.  He’s our 42nd person to win money (44 including 2nd/3rd entries that have won).  He’s also just the third person to ever win money on his/her 2nd or 3rd entry (his first entry was Larzby).  Wendy B (Buckye23) will win at least 4th place and will be our 13th multiple-winner (having won the $40 Bonus in ’07).  That leaves 3 spots with 6 people trying to get it.  Bob G (Baba) after not winning anything the first nine years, has a chance for back-t0-back money spots (2nd in ’08).  Vi N (Little Miss Sunchips) has also languished in her first eight years, many spent near the bottom, but will this be the year?  Adam C (AC) will try to be just the 18th person (15th not including our first year) to win money on their first try.  Steve N (The Rat Pack) went 0-for-2 today but can still hold on in his 4th year.  Ford R (Rainman) is hoping his sophmore year in the pool is lucky.  And Mike B (Buckeye Mike), who had the 22-0 start, will try to add to his $40 Bonus win in ’04, but even with the $70 5th place finish (if UNC wins), he’ll have earned just $110 in 14 years ($140).
