Each person may enter up to four sheets.

All entry fees must be made by Thursday, March 21st at 11:59pm to be considered on time for past participants. If you cannot meet this deadline, don’t enter.

Please note the four play-in games are not applicable to the pool. If you like one of the two teams, you will advance the slot (as was the case in years past for the 16th seed play-in game). If either team advances, you will get credit for the win.
