PBR Pennsylvania March Madness Bracket





PBR Pennsylvania's inaugural March Madness bracket will pit the top high school prospects in the state against each other on Twitter during the course of the NCAA Tournament. The final player standing will be crowned the mythical 2015 PBR Preseason Top Prospect in the state.

Bracket Format:

 1. We seeded the top prospects in the state, regardless of their class, into a 64 player bracket.

2. Beginning on March 15, the prospect match-ups will be posted on our Twitter account @PBRPENNSYLVANIA. The prospect with the most RETWEETS in each match-up advances.

3. 1st Round voting will conclude at midnight on March 18 with winners being announced on March 19. Round of 32 voting will begin on March 21 and will conclude at midnight on March 22. The prospects that have advanced to the Sweet 16 will be announced on March 23.

4. We will continue to mirror this progression until the end of the tournament.  

5. The eventual champion, in addition to receiving the title of 2015 PBR Preseason Top Prospect, will also receive a PBR Under Armour Shirt and hat.
