And then there were twelve.

The NCAA Basketball Tournament is at the midway point between the Sweet Sixteen and the Elite Eight, which means there are now only 11-games remaining in our Hoops Hysteria contest. That’s 11-more opportunities for our SunBlog Madness contestants to pick up points toward the prizes.

The leaderboard features a new name at the top. John Habbe from Carlisle, MA is the current top dog with 61-points. Lowell’s Branko K. sits a point behind in second. There’s a three way tie for third, featuring Elaine Heighington of Dracut, Rick B. from Pepperell and the surprise of the tournament, Teddy P….alias, The Blogger. (For the record, John Habbe and I aren’t eligible for any of the prizes since we’re Lowell Sun employees.)

See you tomorrow with the next update!
