The best weekly performance was 20-5 (Sprouts and YE). The worst was 8-16. Sprouts was also the most frequent weekly winner (six times), followed by JGibson and me with four each.
That was fun! Thanks to those who stuck with it through the long season.
Now, is anyone going to run an NCAA tournament contest?
