Get your dancing shoes ready, the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament is BACK! This is the 27th year in a row (not counting the tournament that was cancelled due to COVID)!

Entry brackets will be available after 8pm EDT, Sunday, March 15th.

Make Your Picks and Additional Info

Entries are due by 12:00PM EDT, Thursday, March 19th!

As many of our annual participants know, the Gontram Architecture bracket pool is free to enter and there are great prizes up for grabs as always, thanks to the Sponsors: Atlantec Engineers (now IMEG), C.E. Ham Electric, Harris Structural Design, and Ten Penny Construction. 1st place this year will receive a $500 Amazon gift card, with other prizes for the Top 7, and even a horse’s rear bobblehead for our Last Place finisher.

This year’s tournament should be a fun one with NC State, UNC, and Duke all earning spots in different regions. Duke is the favorite among the three, and possibly the favorite overall, but as we saw with NC State’s Final Four run in 2024 (another year where they were an 11-seed), it’s all about who can get hot at the right time.

Again this year, our pool host is CBS Sports. We have had several great hosts over the years, but this situation maximizes the opportunity for us to continue offering the POOL at NO COST to our participants.

Whether you’ve participated every year or this is your first time, get your picks in by Thursday at 12 PM EDT to join in on the fun. No knowledge of basketball required. Good luck!
