As we are about a month away from NCAA Wrestling National Championships I wanted to get this out there to put on everyone's schedule. I will be doing my annual March Matness Challenge again this year! All information and rosters must be submitted using this link: https://mikesmit49.wixsite.com/marchmatness
TEAM ROSTERS ARE DUE BY WEDNESDAY MARCH 17TH AT 12:00 PM!
All scoring will be done online and each team has an entrance fee of $20. 1st place will take home 25% of total entry fees, 2nd place 10% of total entry fees, and 3rd place 5% of all entry fees. All proceeds will go back to Legends of Gold! Here are the rules:
The objective of the pool is to create a 10 man roster with each team having a salary cap of 1000 points.. A 10 man roster with 1 guy from every weight. NO OPEN WEIGHT CLASSES. Each wrestler cost a different amount of points based on their seed in the National Tournament. Each seed will be allotted a set amount of points. Those points are listed here:
1st - 196 points
2nd - 148 points
3rd - 139 points
4th - 129 points
5th - 117 points
6th - 107 points
7th - 93 points
8th - 87 points
9th - 78 points
10th - 71 points
11th - 59 points
12th - 45 points
13th- 38 points
14th- 31 points
15th- 24 points
16th- 17 points
Not Seeded- 5 points
There is a spreadsheet on the website to help build your teams so you won't have to calculate your team totals manually before you submit them. This will hopefully help prevent teams from being over the 1000 point limit.
Scoring for each wrestler is based on the NCAA Guidelines for tournament scoring, if you have questions about it please let me know. I'm looking forward to hosting this for years to come and look forward to the challenge for this year. All payments are due by the 1st whistle of the tournament, please send payments through PayPal to mikesmit49@gmail.com or I have added a PayPal Link to the website where you can send me. I should have all the links working on the morning after brackets are released! Good luck!
