Wanted to see if there might be interest in doing some type of bracket challenge for the Women's tournament. Pretty straightforward. Just send in your picks for the entire tournament. Point values would be assigned to each win. Almost the same format as what we have done for the football bracket challenge in past years.

Scoring system:
1st round - 1 point
2nd round - 2 points
3rd Round - 4 points
Quarterfinals- 6 points
Semifinals- 8 points
Final - 15 points
Tiebreaker is total points scored in the National Championship Game

Let me know if you're interested...

D3photography.com typically runs a bracket challenge on d3hoops.com for both the men's and women's tournaments.  You probably don't need to duplicate efforts (assuming they're going to continue to do this).

I don't know that there will be one. They didn't do one for football.

I may not be remembering correctly, but I don't believe they have had for the last few tournaments played. Is it posted somewhere that they are doing it?

Yes, that's why I had posted this on here. Could not find one for this year, and I know they did not do one for football. If they do end up doing one, then that's perfectly fine. But if not, figure we can see how many might want to participate through D3boards.
