MEAD — A 13-year-old from Colorado placed first with her CBS Sports online bracket for the NCAA Tournament, beating out hundreds of thousands of entries from across the country.
At the end of the first round, Brittany Goshia ranked 320,365th. After the second round, she was in the top 7,400. Then it was 80th place, and then sixth place.
After the semifinals, Brittany was in first, and because she picked Duke, Brittany held on to the first spot.
So what about that grand prize $58,000 car CBS Sports mentions on its bracket website?
“I started looking at the fine print, and it says the top 10 percent go into a drawing and they’ll pull it out from there,” Brittany’s father, Steve, said.
That means Brittany beat the odds once but needs to do it again in a drawing this month for her mother to win a new set of wheels. Eric Kahnert, 9News
