GOOD MORNING TO THE SON AND THE SKY❕👋🏼

BALONCESTO / BÁSQUETBOL = “BASKETBALL” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽 / FRENCH 🇫🇷

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today for you I have a post about the current tournament taking place for Men’s College Basketball often referred to as “March Madness”.

The tournament is an annual event that determines what NCAA College is the National Champion.

The college that wins gets to have the championship recognized historically as well as the ability to say that the team who won is the Nation’s best. The bragging rights remain until the following year when a new tournament winner takes that title (unless the university wins the ultra rare back to back tournament championships which The University of Connecticut has most recently accomplished in 2023 and 2024 leading up into the chance at this year’s tournament to be the first threepeat champion which would be 3 championships in a row.

The tournament is one of the top sporting events each year and spans over a week with 64 NCAA colleges competing for the national title in a “win or go home” single elimination tournament. It is really 4 tournaments of 16 with the winners from each “mini tournament” facing off in a tournament of 4. The final four play 2 separate games deciding what two teams remaining of the 64 original teams will play a game with the winner being that year’s tournament victor and receives the title “National Champion”.

I am rooting for Michigan State who has won previously in 2000.

MSU is currently the number 2 seed in their region of 16 teams and have already progressed to the second round of the tournament (32 teams remaining) with their first round victory over “The Bulldogs” Bryant University.

The coach for MSU is Tom Izzo who is from Iron Mountain located in the upper peninsula of Michigan and has been the coach as long as I have been watching Spartan basketball.
