Well, after a nerve-racking Sunday night, the brackets have officially been released. My hard work and dedication have paid off and I've been awarded with a #1 seed heading into the tournament.
It was a little surprising, to be honest. Bacott and Imig both had strong seasons...especially in their out of conference writing. Truth be told, I think the selection committee respected my strength of schedule. The committee placed alot of importance with Ken Wilson Chronicles write-ups and endless references to Saved By The Bell this March, and I reaped the rewards. Now that real season begins.
