For many sports fans, March is the most exciting time of the year. Every year the men\u2019s Division I collegiate basketball tournament takes place, and sports fans from all over the world participate in a challenge that requires one to try and predict all 67 games correctly. With over 9.2 quintillion possible outcomes it is nearly impossible to predict them all.<\/p>\n
At DHS most students participate in these bracket challenges with their friends and even some teachers offer extra credit for the best bracket in the class. Students will download apps on to their smart phones so they can root for their team straight from class, thus causing some teachers to get a little irritated.<\/p>\n
\u201cMarch Madness is by far the best time of the year, I don\u2019t know anyone who doesn’t like it,\u201d junior point guard Justin Cook said.<\/p>\n
In this year\u2019s tournament, the University of Kentucky is going to be heavily favored to win it all. The Wildcats haven\u2019t lost since last year\u2019s national championship game and are 31-0 on the season. However, it is not very often that the tournaments\u2019 number one overall seed wins it all. March 17 commences the tournament and DHS will join the rest of the nation in one of the best times of the year known as March Madness.<\/p>\n
