Cardiac Hill Bracket Contest Champion crowned

Our Cardiac Hill Yahoo! bracket contest ended with the conclusion of Monday's finale. Congratulations are in order for sammygig, who came out on top. Sammy predicted three of the Final Four correctly (Gonzaga, North Carolina, Oregon) and also had the Tar Heels defeating the Zags. Tony, who finished just behind him, had the Final Four results exactly the same but fell just short.

I tied for the lead with most picks correct (43) and was in first place heading into the Final Four. Unfortunately, after the weekend, I dropped all the way down to 21st after my title game fizzled out.

Thanks to the 60 people who played and filled out a bracket.
