I didn't get the post out last night. I ended up watching the amazing NCAA Championship game with friends that came over. I think that final game may have saved the tournament. I mean, the Final Four games were terrible. Last night? Hard to beat a three pointer by UNC to tie the game with five seconds left. But, Villanova DID beat it with a three pointer for the win as time expired. Great game!

I heard a great story today about Izaic Yorks of the University of Washington who ran the fastest mile by a college athlete ever: 3:53?! As crazy fast as that is, he will not be competing in the individual mile at the NCAA championships this weekend. You see, Yorks committed to running in the Distance Medley Relay (DMR) with his teammates. If Yorks ran the individual mile, he would need to run a preliminary qualifying round prior to the DMR and that would jeopardize his teams chances at winning a national title. When asked by his coach if he wanted to compete in the individual race Yorks responded, "I was just, no way. I want to do the DMR. That is what I told these guys I would do. And I am gonna stick to that word." Awesome.
