With the delay of baseball due to the cornoavirus pandemic sweeping our nation, PBR Maryland hoped to provide those that wish to get their baseball fix with an interactive Twitter March Madness style Tournament.
The rules of the event are simple. Two teams square off competing for the most votes to decide who moves on to the next round. At the end of the event, only one team will be left standing living in social media infamy across the Old Line State.
Teams for the tournament were selected via our Maryland Power 25. After that, programs received at large bids based on strength of team twitter profiles.
The Sweet 16 round took place March 26th - March 27th with the winners of each match-up advancing to the Elite Eight which was then voted on March 28th - March 29th.
With that said, let's take a look at the champions advancing to the State Final Four from each region!
