3/15/96, Issue # 5.1.2  "Bix Pix Returns to Terrorize"

----------------------

            BIX PIX TWEY, the defending HWCI NCAA Tournament Pool Champion, blazed back to first place with a HWCI record 15-1 Friday.  The only blemish for Bix Pix Twey was one that seemed in the cards.  # 11 George Washington blew a 17-point lead as # 6 Iowa rallied to win and knock out BIX PIX TWEY's perfect record.

            THE FABONE took two chances, as the only person to pick Oklahoma over Temple and one of two to pick New Orleans over North Carolina.  These two losses pushed THE FABONE in a six-way tie for second, behind BIX PIX TWEY. 

            THE CHEF, who led after 1/2 day of play on Thursday with 7 of 8 correct, has fallen to second to last, picking just 14 of the next 24 games.  REALISTIC MOBELFAKTA brings up the rear with just 40 points (20 of 32 correct).

            Just four people picked # 10 Santa Clara over Maryland.

            Here are the finalized rules and prize monies:

* $10.00 ENTRY FEE

* 19 participants, total prize pool of $ 190.00

*    1st PRIZE:  $ 110.00

*    2nd PRIZE:  $  50.00

*    3rd PRIZE:  $  30.00

* Points awarded per round:  2 / 3/ 4/ 6/ 8/12 points per win

* Total points possible   :  64/48/32/24/16/12 = 196 points
