New in 2005 -- School Standings!
Added as a new feature in 2005, contestants can now represent their favorite
Division I school in the Worldwide Standings Pool for each tournament. A
school will qualify when the number of contestants filling out their Main
Brackets reaches a fixed threshhold. In 2007, as with in 2005 and 2006, that
threshhold will be 10 for the Men's Tournament. However, for the Women's tournament, the threshhold is increasing from 2 to 4 this year.
Keep in mind that, even though you can fill out multiple Brackets, the
only Bracket that counts towards the School Standings is your Main Bracket.
How well is your Alma Mater represented?
This is a list of what users participating in 2012 contests have selected as their "Favorite Division 1 School".

If your school is under-represented on this list, spread the word throughout
the faithful of your favorite team!
For your entry to count towards the list on this page, you must be actively
participating in either of the current year's Contests (i.e. Men's or Women's
hoops). In order for a school to be eligible to compete in the
Challenge, 10 legitimate Brackets (Men's tourney) or 4 legitimate Brackets (Women's tourney) must be filled out by Contestants representing
that school.
If you are a part of the dreaded "No Selection" crowd, you can select your
favorite school by logging into the site and clicking the Modify Personal
Information/Change Password link in the "Other Miscellaneous Links"
section of the Welcome Page or by clicking the Modify Personal Information
link in the "Tourney Toolbox" section of the Main Contest page. You can update
this any time before the first game tips off.
