For many of us, Cal men’s basketball season ended months ago. Nevertheless, the postseason went on as usual. Fortunately, Cal’s absence meant we could fill out those brackets without any temptation of homerism. Alas, that did not save many of our brackets turning into raging tire fires by the end of the first weekend. Things did not get much better as the tournament went on, as only two people picked Kansas to win the national championship (and only 9 picked them to appear in the championship game). However, a few of you were able to assemble slightly less-worse brackets than the rest of us and today we recognize your success.

Congrats to VC, Arav, and Robert for finishing in the top three! You will respectively receive $100, $50, and $25 gift cards to Homefield Apparel. Here’s the rest of the top 10 (11, actually, as there was a tie for 10th).

Thanks to all who participated! And an extra congratulations to the group as not a single person forgot to fill out a bracket. Participation trophies for everyone!
