Bracket for a Cause

The Harvard College Sports Analysis Collective is running an NCAA basketball tournament bracket, and with the disaster in Japan they are using it to raise money for the relief effort.

We’ll be running two pools: $100 in prizes will go to the winner of the Harvard student pool, and the other $100 will go to a pool that everyone can enter.

To be eligible to win any of the prizes, you must show us a proof of donation of at least $5 minimum to the disaster relief charity of your choice. This donation must be made by the tipoff of the first game of the round of 64, using the email that you have provided to us. This is to prevent people from making a donation only after they think they have a better chance of winning the prize, since we will only be checking the donations of prizewinners. We will be strict about this.

It’s a good way to have fun with the tournament and help out the earthquake victims.
