ROUND 1 PAGE - FINAL Updated Saturday March 23 at 10:00 AM Round 1 for 2024 is in books.   Somewhere Drew Carey is smiling.  Not that Jennifer Cleaveland has anything to do with that other city in Ohio.  She almost certainly doesn't.   Otherwise you'd never see the name Cleaveland at the top of a standings table. But that is where Jennifer finds herself this morning.  With 169 points, she's thirteen points ahead of the second place sheet.  That's a pretty large margin after the first round.  Now the track record for first round leaders holding on to win the pool is pretty poor.  But it is still a good place to start the second round from for Jennifer.  And Jennifer also has the most pick correct and the best potential score. Rob Collins slipped to second on day two.  He is the sheet thirteen points back.  Third is Andy Brickler 2 another eleven points back.  All three of the top sheets have their final four intact, which is a good thing. Defending champion Zain Aziz is fourth.  Things tighten up from this point back.  Zain is just one point back of Andy.  He's only two points ahead of Mark.  And Mark is only two points ahead of Kent Dixon.  So there is a lot that will change as point values go up in round two. There are two reference sheets added to the standings.  The first is if you just picked favorites.  People always ask, what if I just picked all favorites.  While it will sometimes finish in the top ten, I've never seen the All Favorties sheet win the pool.  So being lazy doesn't pay.   I also added a Consensus sheet, which is the result of all 58 of the sheets turned in this year.  This sheet shows that if you put all our colllective brains in one room, you'd still have plenty of room for furnature.  After round one, neither reference sheet is in the top 40.   Rank Name Points Max Correct
