28th Office Pool 64 Bracket Challenge Begins

The NCAA basketball tournament pairings have just been announced, and we are excited to announce the launch of our 28th annual Office Pool 64 Challenge.
   
Last year, we transitioned to CBS Sports Bracket Manager as our pool host, as our previous tournament software is no longer available. There were a few glitches on their site last year, resulting in some of you losing your brackets entirely. Hopefully, they have bolstered their bandwidth to accommodate the increased traffic this year.
   
Our bracket contest officially kicks off at 12:30 AM (EST) on Thursday, March 21st. If you participated last year, simply log in with your existing account and proceed to fill out your bracket. For newcomers, please create a user account with CBS Sports Bracket Manager and submit your brackets. You will have the flexibility to edit your brackets and monitor your progress throughout the tournament using their mobile app or your home PC.
      

• Deadline: 12:30 AM (EST) on Thursday, March 21
• Entry Fee: $0 per bracket
• Website:  CBS Sports Bracket Manager
• Bracket Name: Office Pool 64
