When Duke beat Wisconsin, 68-63 to win the NCAA Men’s National Championship, 12 year old Sam Holtz became a winner too. Holtz, a 6th grader from Lake Zurich, Illinois, won the top spot in ESPN’s bracket contest.
NCAA Final Four is all set and my bracket is busted. Duke beat Gonzaga 66-52 to advance and I had the ‘Zags’ in the Championship game against Kentucky.
What a weekend in college basketball with the two remaining undefeated teams losing. Duke raked #1 and Michigan raked #2 both put one in the ‘L’ column and will probably drop slightly in the rankings. Duke’s first loss came to NC State 84-76, the Wolfpack's first win over Duke since 2004.
