Introduction
Howdy, y'all! Are your minds and eyes engaged enough to read for a while? Despite the warm and sunny weather, I prefer to write and not hike. I have six articles to publish today! This is the first one.
The articles will become more profound, starting with this “if anyone cares” article as the least profound. I apologize to Tennessee college basketball fanatics, including Mrs. Appalachian Irishman.
Tennessee Basketball in March
The men's team, on Friday, March 11, 2022, won the SEC Tournament Championship. They beat Mississippi State, 72-59. That was the first SEC Championship that the men's team had won in several years or decades. I don't keep track of that stuff.
The men entered the “March Madness” tournament. On Thursday, 3/17/2022, St. Patrick's Day, they won Round One: #3 Tennessee 88, #14 Longwood 56. Happy belated St. Patrick's Day, by the way, to y'all!
For Round Two, yesterday (Saturday), March 19, 2022, they lost: #11 Michigan 76, #3 Tennessee 68. That was one of those bracket-busting upsets. Once again, Tennessee will have no “Sweet 16” appearance.
Mrs. Appalachian Irishman is fond of the Lady Vols. They didn't win the SEC Tournament Championship. I have forgotten the date and which team beat them. Mrs. Appalachian Irishman remembers.
Yesterday, however, the Lady Vols won Round One of their “March Madness:” #4 Tennessee 80, #13 Buffalo 67.
Round Two will be tomorrow at 7 PM. The Lady Vols will play #12 Belmont. I reckon that the television will have to be on whatever channel for the game, not on the Gunsmoke channel, as usual.
Conclusion
From courtside, this is the Appalachian Irishman signing off from his March Madness update. I thought that you might be bored. I was while writing this article!
Let's move on to the second article, of six in total today!
