Here are the results for the 2017 All-A Tournament basketball contest. As always, the results won't be final for 24 hours. All contestants should use that time to check their score for errors. After that time period has passed, the contest is final and the winner should use the following link to claim the prize of choice. If you think your score is incorrect, please send me a PM and I will look into your claim.

 

Congratulations to bball89 on the victory, and it wasn't even close. No tiebreaker was needed.

Here a few tidbits from the contest.

 

Two contestants correctly picked Paris as the champion - bball89 and MNCM.

No contestant picked NewCath to make the finals.

18 of the 25 contestants picked LCA to win the championship.

Two contestants came within one point of picking the total points scored in the title game.

 

 

Thanks to everyone for playing. Provided I'm still walking and talking, let's do it again in 2018!

 

 

Always a bridesmaid - never a bride.

Thanks for doing this one each year mcpapa!!

My pleasure. The only drawback is that there are only about 3 days to get entries in because of when many of the regional All-A tourneys are held. But it is a fun contest.

The following contestants correctly chose all 8 first-round winners:

 

Inside Slant

Of the 15 tournament games, our winner - bball89 - only missed two winners. That's pretty impressive in this contest format.

I had to go with the hometown team to win it all! #ParisPride

 

The other picks were just lucky guesses
