And the winners are . . . .
Wow! That was a great tournament! Our first- and second-place winners tied by points, so it came down to their tie breaker estimating the total points of the championship game. 😊
Rick and Jimmy will be sending Amazon gift cards to our winners; $50 for our first-place winner and $25 for our second-place winner. Congratulations!!
We hope you enjoyed following the competition as much as we did! And next year we’ll have two competitions to participate in!

We would like to invite you to participate in a March Madness tournament challenge with our team and friends! We’ll be using the ESPN Tournament Challenge site that can be accessed by ESPN.com or the ESPN Tournament Challenge App (easiest option). The apps can be downloaded here:
If you participated in the challenge in previous years, you should be able to see our group at the top of the group lists as your 2023 (or previous year) participation. Just click into that group and re-join! You'll need to create a bracket to join, but this will not require you to fill-in the bracket until after Selection Sunday (3/17).
If you haven't participated before, or you're unable to see the previous group, use the instructions below to join us!
After Selection Sunday on March 17th you’ll be able set-up the teams in your bracket. Jimmy has set a 1 bracket limit for everyone.
Team selections need to be filled in no later than the first tip of the round of 64 on Thursday, March 21st (before the games begin).
The tournament ends on Monday, April 8th and we’ll award prizes to the top two finishing participants!
If you have any questions, Jimmy’s your man! He can be reached at Jimmy@TheMcDowellTeam.net or (971) 600-4688. 😉 Let the Madness Begin!!
