The Match Madness Round one (burn-in round) begins now. Day 1 Match ups are: 16 Lodgepole Pine vs 16 Balsa And 16 Catalpa vs 16 Basswood
This is the "play in" round, the winner takes on the 1 in the next round. Just like NCAA does theirs, except we dont mess with the eleven seeds like they do.
We dont do automatic bids, otherwise Super Cedars and Compressed Sawdust logs would be on the bracket.
Lodgepole Pine stomps Balsa 12-0 and Catalpa wins over Basswood 8-3. The tournament continues tomorrow with the other two First Round match-ups.
Well, you did put in your ballot after the bracket was drawn up. Cant say I have heard of larch but we will see if it does better next year.
Voting for the weekly poll ended earlier today, tournament bracket was created Sunday. Voting on today's matchups ended around 8 CST.
