UH-OH! It's late into the night, the vote totals were close, there was a delay in announcing the results, there was a recount - this can only mean one thing ... Hanging chads!

Well whatever you call hanging chads in the internet world! I was counting on a piece of paper as everyone voted and somewhere along the line I missed a few votes from one person and another and it just didn't add up. So I went through, made a chart of 1st-2nd-3rd-4th with the 4 schools going down on the left, and took the 45 minutes filling that all in and then releasing the results.
I am surprised a bit, I figured Delaware would get #2, and after the first 5 people voted, their support tanked, and it was a battle between YSU and Chattanooga. But I will leave it to what the votes say, and again: I RECOUNTED TWICE!!!
note to self: do not volunteer to do one of these ever again!
Congratulations Montana for their blowout win in this competition, you had my support as #1!

Time to turn on NBC-21-WFMJ to tune into the sports report. I will put PIP on my TV and see about the other 2 channel's sports reports!
Great news for the site!
