NCAA Final Four

NCAA Tournament, March Madness, Buddy Hield, Syracuse, Sports Puns, Michigan High School Basketball Championships, Lansing Everett, and Weekend Winners.

  Only the Final Four remain. On today's "Current Sports with Al Martin" Al and engineer Isaac Constans dissect the wild world of college basketball and how every team made it to Houston, with some cool facts thrown in about the historical repercussions of this tournament. However, the main course of the day revolves around what announcer Kevin Harlan had to say regarding Syracuse's win--a religion-fueled pun that engages the audience. The other basketball over the weekend was no less exciting, as several mid-Michigan teams scrapped for a state high school championship. We review the Williamston and Lansing Everett end to the hoop year. Finally, for a comprehensive look over the sporting world, 'Weekend Winners' ends the show with a bang.
