The Jayhawk NFB pool was won handily by Paul Vonhertsenberg who garnered a whopping 316 total points. Paul achieved his big win first by making several correct picks in the Sweet 16 and elite 8 rounds and then topped it off by correctly predicting Villa Nova to win the national championship.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The incentive referral contest was won by Ron Miller who signed up 10 outside pool participants. This is your second year to win the incentive prize, so nice going Ron! Both Paul and Ron are the lucky winners each of $50 gift cards from the Salty Iguana Mexican Restaurant.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The financial gain to chapter treasury will be announced at our April chapter meeting at the Lawrence Public Library on Saturday, April 16. There may yet be a few who didn’t submit brackets yet may still wish to donate to the project.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Lastly, I wish to thank everyone who participated in the pool or made a donation for your support of the work of the local chapter of the National Federation of the Blind. This has been a crazy and fun tournament to watch even though the Jayhawks were knocked out by Villa Nova. I have had lots of fun managing the pool and helping us all to raise a few needed and soon to be well used dollars for the Jayhawk Chapter.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Best regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Rob Tabor | president Jayhawk Chapter<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>National Federation of the Blind of Kansas<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
