It’s that time of the year again. When the calendar turns from February to March, for sports fans it means one thing: March Madness. It’s the time when bracketologists salivate, dreams come true, bubbles pop, incredible upsets happen left and right, and ultimately, one lucky team survives six grueling rounds to win all the marbles. With both Michigan and Michigan State squarely in the mix, the excitement leading up to the big dance in the state of Michigan is palpable.
To celebrate, WCC is holding the March Madness Challenge, a bracket competition open to students, staff, facility members, and even mascots.
Matt Lucas, supervisor of WCC sports, said the beauty of the March Madness Challenge is that anyone can participate, regardless of their knowledge of college hoops.
“You don’t really have to know everything about these teams to have fun,” Lucas said.
Lucas said that the March Madness Challenge will open March 18, and will remain open until 6 p.m. on March 20. Brackets can be obtained in the WCC sports office, and staff members will also be distributing them in the Student Center.
The winner of the March Madness Challenge will receive a WCC sports “prize package,” Lucas said.
