What an unbelievable Sweet Sixteen round! For the first time ever, there will not be any No. 1 seeds in the Elite Eight. It was difficult for me to choose winners in my bracket this year because I didn’t feel there were a lot of stand-out teams. So the fact that no No. 1 seeds are moving on proves that point!
As for our pool, Grandma is still at the top, but Damon has jumped to second place. Everyone has lost their championship teams except for Avery. She is still holding on to hope that she’ll finally win the trophy! All eyes will be on UConn and Gonzaga tonight.
