Madness

An epic National Championship game deserved an ending like this one.

First let’s take a step back to set up that amazing ending. Ladies and gentlemen I present Marcus Paige …

Paige’s gravity-defying double-pump three tied the game with five seconds. Then it came down to one more play. THE play.

Villanova’s Kris Jenkins three as time expired catapulted him into tournament legend status and crowned the Villanova Wildcats as champions.

Thanks to everyone for making this such a fun thing to do each March. Without further ado here’s the final standings.

1 Bill Waters (4) 122 North Carolina $325
2 Larissa Casebolt 110 North Carolina $150
3 Cathy Matthews 98 Michigan St $100
