MARCH MADNESS


In 1939 March officially became the best month ever. Why you ask? Because this is when the birth of the NCAA tournament started. There were originally 8 teams and has since grown to 68 teams being allowed to compete in hopes of receiving a "bid" to go to the tournament also known as the "Big Dance". UCLA currently holds the record for the most tournament titles at 11 followed by University of Kentucky with 7 and the current defending champions Duke University are in third with 4. Even if you don't follow college basketball through out the year, you can bet there will be several close, exciting games filled with players giving it there all leaving everything they have on the court.
