UCONN REMAINS UNDEFEATED IN TITLE GAMES
Jah Lives-2 rides UConn to win the pool; Krispy Seconds takes last top 8 slot

HOME, CA (smt) – #4W-UConn trailed early 10-6 but dominated the rest of the way in winning their 5th title in 24 tournaments, beating #5S-San Diego St, 76-59. UConn won the title for the 4th time coming from the West Regional, the 4th time beating a lower seed, and the 4th time in Texas (twice in Houston). Even after SDSU clawed their way back to 5 points (60-55 with 5:19 left), UConn quickly hit a 3-pointer en route to a 9-0 run to put the game away.

UConn won all six games by 13 or more points and scored 70 or more points in each. Despite being a #4 seed (only the second #4 seed to win it (Arizona in ’97)), they only faced one higher seed (where they routed #3W-Gonzaga by 28). SDSU shot poorly (32%) at one point missing 14 straight after taking the 10-6 lead and also missed their first 7 layups. Once again the mid-major falls just short (last one to win, UNLV in 1990).

KANSAS RALLIES FROM 16 DOWN TO STUN UNC
Bob, Glen, and Greg join the winner’s circle; Chris wins Bonus

VERY LONG BOY SCOUT MEETING IN CYPRESS, CA (smt) – In 2008, Kansas was down 9 to Memphis with 2:12 left in the Final and rallied to force overtime and pick up their 3rd NCAA title. A 15-point halftime deficit? No big deal. #1MW-Kansas overcame a record 16-point overall deficit and record 15-point second half deficit to hold off a hobbled #8E-UNC team, 72-69, for their fourth title. Three different UNC players got injured but played through in turning a 56-50 deficit into a 69-68 lead with 1:42 left. Hobbled players affected the final minute stumbling with a couple turnovers and forcing bad threes because the quickness wasn’t there anymore. Up by 3, Kansas ran out of bounds with 4.3 seconds left but UNC’s long three by Caleb Love (who hit deciding threes vs UCLA and Duke) was way short.

Glitch in the standings

Posted on Saturday, March 17, 2018 by Scott

Maybe it’s because Dave is working on some A.I. that can’t process a 16 seed beating a 1 seed but the standings are stuck after 18 or 19 games. Thus, go here to find Friday’s standings: http://www.hwci.com/ncaa/2018/status0316.htm.

Don’t give up yet!

After all the heartache, many of you probably have torn up your brackets. Well, out of 114 entries, just 8 have been elminated from money (1st-5th place). Eight. That means 106 of you will still be stressed come Thursday. David has posted the standings and you can find out if you are one of the unlucky 8.
