NCAA Tournament Pool

Final Standings!!!

The University of Connecticut defeated the Kentucky Wildcats last night, and by picking the Huskies, J.C. Carralero is our champion.  He jumps from 4th to 1st place, making Barkley Sosa slide back to 2nd, Cesar Gonzalez moves to 3rd and Your Tournament Host finishes just out of the money in 4th.  Steve Usma gets his money back for finishing in last place.

I have been delinquent in getting the PayPal information out, because apparently it is much simpler than I thought.  If you are paying via PayPal - all you need is my e-mail address, sosalaw@yahoo.com.  Make sure you hit the friends and family selection so that PayPal will not take fees out of the total.

A great tournament everybody.  Would hope you all come back into the pool again next year!

Your Tournament Host!

NCAA Tournament Pool

NCAA TOURNAMENT POOL STANDINGS
Championship Monday

WOW - this tournament has definitely taken another unexpected turn as we lost another potential champion when overall number 1 seed and overwhelming favorite Florida lost to Connecticut.  In the other half, eighth seeded Kentucky beat 2 seed Wisconsin, meaning that we have the highest seeds to ever collectively play in the NCAA Championship game (15).  The picks of the day go to Barkley Sosa and JC Carralero, for selecting Kentucky and Connecticut respectively.  Although a few (very few) of the other entries had Kentucky or Connecticut, Barkley and JC put themselves right into the championship picture, especially since Barkley is now the tournament leader!  

For those of you STILL waiting for PayPal information - I am a complete idiot.  I have never used PayPal before, and I set up an account.  However, I do not know what information that I am supposed to give you to know into what account you should pay.  I have searched and searched, but apparently - as I said before - I am an idiot.  If someone can e-mail me at sosalaw@yahoo.com to let me know what information other than the e-mail address that I need to give you that will be greatly appreciated!

For now, Barkley leads, but JC has a chance to win with a Connecticut victory Monday night!
