Weekend Upsets  (HENDERSON’S VERSION)

(Mill Creek Township, PA) – A long weekend of games featured 11 First Round upsets blowing up a lot of brackets. “Just shake it off,” commented an obviously agitated Senior Vice President for Marketing, Promotion, Benefit Administration, Climate and Environmental Justice, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Pronoun Management Patrick Henderson when asked how the upsets affected his bracket.

Connecticut was the top favorite, being selected as the winner on 46 of the 121 brackets submitted. Houston (20), Purdue (13), and North Carolina (11) also received double digit selections.

Congratulations to Garrett McCandless who is on top of the leaderboard with 57 points. Right behind is Tom Neiper (56), and Dave Callahan (55). Four brackets have 54 points entering the Sweet 16. Check out the leaderboard to see how your bracket is doing. Last year’s winner Alex Levering is tied at 92nd with 41 points.

We are thrilled to once again have a Welcome Message fromball heart  President Joe Biden.

The Tournament also launched a new era in its efforts to improve the game we all love, hosting its first ever Referee Camp and Conference in Canyon Point, Utah.

And a hectic Tournament Officials Annual Meeting, featuring Air Supply, resulted in several significant actions by the Board of Directors.

There is a lot going on at the moment.

Are you ready for it?
