Badger State Sports Week(end) In Review

The NCAA Tournament

Both the Wisconsin Badgers and the Marquette Golden Eagles made it to the dance this. And while it probably was never a concern that they would, I have to admit that I am surprised by their seeds, particularly the Badgers. While both go in as 4th seeds, Bucky doesn’t usually get much love from the selection committee. Of course, this just plays into all of the pundits who are waiting to line up for the boring Badgers are a first round upset. Personally, I’ll have both Marquette and Wisconsin going to at least the Sweet 16.

The Cadillac Championship

Steve Striker finished tied for 8th at 11 under par, five strokes behind the winner. He started out looking pretty good, holding or hovering around the lead through much of the first round. But hovering wasn’t good enough as others in the field began to pull away.  This does, however, give him three top 10 finishes, including a win in the season opener at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions, in the first 4 events so far this year.
