On this episode of "Current Sports with Al Martin," engineer Ian Hawley continues to host in Al's absence.

Production assistant Jon Simon holds it down on the sound board, and the boys bring you a jam-packed hour of sports talk. To start the show, Ian and Jon reminisce on the upset that almost was, with Michigan pulling off the come-from-behind win over Cinderella,  Loyola-Chicago. They also look back on the beat-down that Villanova gave Kansas en route to their second National Championship game in the past three seasons. The gang also discusses the Detroit Pistons and their dwindling playoff hopes, despite the fact that they are on a five-game winning streak. Al calls in to close the show, giving his thoughts on the Final Four games and his prediction for the National Championship game.
