From Tuesday, March 14th to Monday, April 3rd, 68 collegiate basketball teams competed in the 78th NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament, known as March Madness. Although many fans predicted that the Kansas Jayhawks would win, the North Carolina Tar Heels ended up taking their 6th championship title after losing in the championship game the previous year against the Villanova Wildcats.

This year’s tournament was especially notable because the championship game was the first to be contested in a Western state since 1995 when Seattle, Washington hosted. Even though the tournament only concluded nearly a month ago, avid fans who consider March Madness the “most glorious time of year” have already started making predictions as to who the 2018 winners will be, so it’s never too early to start on your bracket!
