Paw Prints The Daily Roundup

The NCAA Men’s and Women’s NCAA Tournament selections are out and both the UConn men and UConn women have been tabbed as No. 1 seeds.

The UConn women are the No. 1 overall seed in the Trenton Region of the women’s tournament and should roll through to the Final Four in St. Louis. They enter the tournament as the odds on favorite to win it all.

On the other hand, the UConn men won’t have an easy road as their some tough matchups should they advance on Thursday. I still haven’t decided on how far I think the Huskies will advance but will get to that on Wednesday when I fill out all my brackets. There’s so many I lost count. And if you need help in your men’s pool, check out Bracket Brains for some help.

And not to get lost in all this NCAA Tournament madness, the UConn football team starts spring practice today.
