Second Round Recap
TOP TEN
All that really matters is your point total. After the second round, here is our Top Ten:
Ed Schmitt 6, Kevin Knapp 3, Michael Ruemmele, Tom Mock,
Matthew Murray, Steelskins Gammache 4, Javier Nieto,
Cristin Hiatt, Olivia Marks (R), Wes Herndon, and
Donnie Kennedy
UPSET PICKERS
In the Second Round there really wasn’t any “upsets” of the games played. However, North Carolina State getting through as the #11 seed would be considered an upset pick if it wasn’t for Oakland getting past the first round. Here are those that had NC State in the Sweet 16:
David Gammache, Steelskins Gammache 4,
Caleb Helderbrand, Cristin Hiatt, Sarah Hobbs,
Tom Kay, Kevin Knapp 3, Stanley Macadory,
Tom Mock, Alexander Morris 3, Matthew Murray,
Troy Willis, and Todd Wilson.
There were three more teams seeded 5th or 6th that got through. So including NC State, that’s four teams that snuck in. Only one entry had all four picked. That was
Steelskins Gammache 4
Hard to believe but there were only a few that actually had three of the four picked to advance. They were:
Shooter Flatch, Mike Hobbs 2, Sarah Hobbs,
Charles Kersten, Tom Mock, Matthew Murray,
and Todd Wilson
GAME PICKERS OF THE FIRST ROUND
Of course there were 16 games played in the Second Round, thus the name Sweet Sixteen. Out of 16 games, one entry picked 15 of the 16 correctly. That is going to bode well as we move to the next round. Watch out for:
TOM MOCK
There were five others that got 14 of the 16 correct. Look out for these folks to move up the leaderboard this week.
Mike Hobbs 2, Donnie Kennedy, Charles Kersten,
Trent Ward, and Zinger33
IN MEMORIAM
