March Madness Week 1 Recap!

Every year I try to take off to watch the first 2 rounds of March Madness and I thought I would share my favorite moments thus far.

Despite my bracket being busted (thanks a lot Iowa State!) its been a great first week! 

Even if you are not a basketball fan I think you will enjoy my fave moments so far!

Best Comeback Moment

NC State Buzzer Beater Against- NC State was getting demolished by LSU and slowly came back to beat them by one point on a shot that went in with 1 second left in the game!

Best In It To Win It Moment

Auguste turns the ball over giving Butler a chance to win the game and then Notre Dame’s Pat Connaughton  pumps his team up with majorly DENYING Butlers shot while yelling “NOT TONIGHT!!!!!” Notre Dame goes on to win in Over Time!

Notre Dame Vs Butler:
