There is a little Madness out there!

There is a little Madness out there!  March Madness that is...and I love it!  College Basketball is one of my favorite sports and during this time of year, I try to watch as much as possible.  Now there's another reason to watch...a little piece of Pullman is creating some MAGIC! 

AliHis name is ALI FAROKHMANESH!  A mouthful to say for sure...yet the excitement he's caused is magic.  This young basketball player from Northern Iowa University has definitely stirred things up!  He grew up in Pullman, WA and grew up playing Basketball, but after finishing high school, no Division 1 universities wanted him, not even Division 2 schools saw what he could offer.  Things are changing now!

Check out the following link and read the story about ALI FAROKHMANESH.

Read how he has made two winning shots to propel his team to the Sweet Sixteen...and best of all...you'll learn that he grew up in Pullman, WA.  There's a little bit of Madness out there...and he's MAGIC!

hi Olga,

Looks like a great tournament....

you may want to notify AR as your recent comment that you made on my contest entry showed up as being made by Marti, not you. Must be a glitch somewhere....

As the best coaches know, the heart of a team and its players can take one quite far, and one learns in that process how to have heart and be a team player in other areas of life.
