2016 March Madness Challenge

By Sean Kennedy (@PhillyFastBreak)

The field of 68 is set and thanks to the leaked bracket over twitter, fans weren’t forced to sit through the 2-hour money grab that was the NCAA/CBS selection show special.

This year, we have three Philadelphia-area schools in the tournament field, with #2 Villanova and #10 Temple potentially poised for a second-round meeting in Brooklyn. Meanwhile, St. Joseph’s is set to do battle as the #8 seed in the West region.

Whatever your rooting interest, nothing beats the thrill of the tournament action itself. Part of what makes the experience great each year is filling out those brackets, so what’s one more? This one is free to enter, we pay out money to the winners, and signing up will be 100 times quicker than the CBS selection show. Get ready for the 4th annual Philly Fast Break March Madness challenge.
