We Have A Winner In The 2014 Chicagoist Tournament Challenge

bracket_trophy.jpg This year's NCAA Tournament was one of the craziest ever, with lots of upsets and a championship game that pitted a seventh seed against an eighth seed. In Monday night's finale, the UConn Huskies outlasted the Kentucky Wildcats 60-54 to claim the title and cut down the nets.

With UConn's victory, it is now time for us to crown the champion of the Chicagoist Tournament Challenge. HMW2300's HMW2300 1 entry finished with 1110 points, aided by his/her selection of UConn as the winner -- the only one in our entire field of 131 entries. This pick also landed HMW2300 in the top 99.8 percentile of all entrants in the ESPN Tournament Challenge. Well done!

How's the rest of you do? We finished a disappointing 95th ourselves...
