http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a9/2010FinalFour.png/150px-2010FinalFour.pngThanks to the 358 people who signed up for the fourth annual Basketball Manitoba NCAA March Madness Pool with CBS or Facebook!  After Monday's thrilling national final, we have our top 3 finishers in each pool settled. Those finishing in the top 3 are...

 

 

 

CBS Pool Top 3 Finishers 

Final Rank Name Final Score Correct Champion
1 Sean Waldron 123 40 Duke
2 Helene Tapley 122 39 Duke
3 Rob Janzen 121 41 Duke  (130)*

* 3rd place in the CBS pool was determined by a tie breaker involving Rob Janzen and Petur Petursson. In the case of a tie, the person guessing the closest to the combined score of the championship final was given the higher ranking. In this case, Rob guessed 130 points and Petur guessed 132. The final combined score between Duke and Butler was 120 points (61-59). Details on the scoring system used and tie breakers can be found below.  

Facebook Pool Top 3 Finishers

Final Rank Name Final Score Correct Champion
1 David Nepon 121 40 Duke
2 Richard Reimer 116 40 Duke
3 Ashley Morris 115 37 Duke

 

These 6 people will be contacted in the coming day about collecting their prizes!

A side note to both pools is the ONLY person to pick Butler to win it all (let alone make the Final Four) was Mary 'The Greek' Wedlake, the 5 year old daughter of Adam 'The Geek' Wedlake of Basketball Manitoba. She was a half court shot away from winning the whole pool!  

Thanks again to all for playing and we'll see you back for March Madness 2011!
