ROUND 1 PAGE
UPDATED March 22, 2025 at 9:30 AM
This was a really good opening
round to the 2025 Basketball Bracket
Challenge, and it sets up well for and
exciting pool all the way to the end.
Relatively minor upsets. Enough to keep
things interesting. Enough to set apart who
progosticated their way to the top. But no
so descrtubctive as to cripple the potential
for points in futre round.
We close round 1 with Jennifer Carlton at
the top of the standings. Jenniver has 184
points, haveing picked 29 of the 32 games
correctly. Jennifer was only matched by Paul
Acquaviva in number of games picked
correctly, and Paul sites 12 points back in
second. Amy Melone is third at 160, Bill
Cohen 2 and SJ Anneken round out the top
five.
Looking down the list, you'll see Lisa Kim
has the most potential points. Lisa can get
to 431. Pretty impressive for someone who
two years ago didn't know anything about
pools and hesitated to join the pool for
that reason alone. A fast study that one.
Not a lot of damage in the final four picks
either. I am sad to say that Katie Schwegman,
how is curretly a very respectable 13th, has
lost her Tigers. Clemson's elimination in
the first round put Katie as a serious
disadvantage the rest of the way.
Krystal Parker has also lost her champion.
But where Krystal is in the standing, the
loss of Kansas will not be nearly as
impactful.
