Our House of College Hoops Jerome XXII pool resulted in a Top 2% bracket and plenty of fun.
Time to reveal the results! Each year, The Jerome brings together more than 1,000 participants to select each conference tournament champion who punches their auto-bid to the Big Dance. This year, 8 of our House of College Hoops contributors hopped in on the party.
Some notes:
Congrats to Chris Thedinga, who picked 19 of 32 possible winners correctly! He is among the nation's Top 25 submissions, good for Top 1.7% of all contestants.
Some sleeper picks hit for Michael DeRosa - UC Santa Barbara coming away with the Big West and TAMU Corpus Christi took home the Southland in Round 2.
Will Tondo & Phil Dexter had identical scores - 88 points & 14 winners - but Tondo settled the tiebreakers with more accurate supplemental answers (most combined wins & scores of certain teams throughout the tournaments).
James "Clubfoot Jim" Mas had only 7 winners, but it was 7 more than he had season as 2023 was his first entry. Hey, it could always be worse! We hope he joins us again next year.
