Yesterday, a 16th Seeded Basketball Team, called UMBC (University of Maryland Baltimore County) defeated the overall #1 Seeded team, the University of Virginia, by 20 points. Score. 74-54. This first victory was the first of 135 attempts in the NCAA Tournament, by a 16th Seeded team playing a #1 Seed. UMBC plays 9th Seeded Kansas State on Sunday. That game will have high TV ratings. Can UMBC do it again?

I wonder what the odds were on that game? A big money bet, could have made you a lot of money.

Another Powerhouse bites the dust. #11 Seed Loyola-Chicago (LCHI) defeats #3 Seed Tennessee. Score, 63-62. Went down to the possible winning shot at the buzzer. Didn't fall in. Chicago goes to the Sweet 16. This team is really good. Oh! The Agony of Defeat.

And the campus is only 2 miles from my house - Front page headline of the Baltimore Sun states "UMBC 'brainiacs' show off their brawny side? Camp[us has a reputation for excellence in science asnd its chess team has been a power house in international chess play for some years. In fact, they recruit internationally for chess players, or at least they used too.
