  • Spatial Analysis of the NCAA Basketball Tournament
    A Spatial Analysis of the NCAA Basketball Tournament By Brian S. Ward CH2M HILL Brian R. Davenhall CH2M HILL Bryce R. Wells Athlon Sports, Inc. 2006 ESRI International User Conference Proceedings Abstract The NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament is one of the most popular events in both athletics and entertainment. Each year, millions of people watch the games, but not only that: they also bet on the games; travel hundreds or thousands of miles to see their teams play; and most importantly - they compete in NCAA Tournament bracket contests. This study takes a look a historical NCAA Tournament results since 1985 (the year the tournament expanded to 64 teams), to determine whether or not there is a spatial correlation between the distance of competing teams to their game sites, based on either their seeding and/or the Vegas lines, relative to their success in Tournament games. The end result will be not only the results of the study, but also a fascinating visualization of the last 20 years of the NCAA tournament. Introduction: Each year around the Ides of March, sports fans across the United March Madness States are obsessively captured by the frenzy of the National Collegiate Athletic Administration (NCAA) Men’s Basketball Tournament. What was once a niche market shared primarily by the teams, cheerleaders, alumni, and fans of such schools as UCLA, the University of Kentucky, and the University of North Carolina, has over time become a cultural phenomenon. On a world scale, the closest comparison in sports is the World Cup – if on a smaller, more frequent scale than the World Cup.

    Store | Contact Us | Careers Home Products Services Industries Training Support Events News About ESRI ArcUser Online Search ArcUser: October - December 2006 Spatial Madness By Brian Ward and Brian Davenhall, CH2M HILL, Inc. An analysis of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament Editor's note: Known as March Madness, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Men's Division I Basketball Championship has become one of the highest-profile sporting events in the United States since its inception in 1939. Teams from across the country compete in this single-elimination-format event. All games in the 20-day tournament are broadcast on television, and wagering on the tournament has become something of an event in itself. The authors' paper, presented at the 2006 ESRI International User Conference, examined possible predictive correlations between the distance traveled by a team competing and its likelihood of prevailing. The paper presentation was well attended, and the paper, as well as comments received following the presentation, are the basis for this article. The accompanying article "Going the Distance—Did team travel make a difference in the outcome?" gives the uninitiated a sense of the excitement that the NCAA tourney engenders. The authors' study considers the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament since its expansion in 1985 to 64 teams. Over the 21 years included in the study, teams participating in the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament have represented 46 states, with game locations in 38 states. While there is a cursory attempt by the NCAA tournament selection committee to place teams within logical geographic areas, more often than not, teams travel a significant distance away from their campuses to participate in games.

  • FRANCHISE HISTORY HISTORY of OWNERSHIP the Sacramento Kings Begin Their Second Season Under a Group Led by Owner Vivek Ranadivé
    FRANCHISE HISTORY HISTORY OF OWNERSHIP The Sacramento Kings begin their second season under a group led by Owner Vivek Ranadivé. The group succeeds the Maloof family, who sold the franchise in Spring 2013. The latest chapter in the franchise's ownership history began to take shape in April 2013 when the NBA's Relocation Committee unanimously recommended that the league's Board of Governors deny the application of the team to relocate to Seattle, Washington. The passion, will and vision Ranadive's group expressed for the future of the Kings in Sacramento lead the league's Board of Governors to unanimously approve the sale of the team on May 28, 2013. The Maloof family had owned the team for 14 seasons after taking control of the Kings and ARCO Arena on July 1, 1999. The Maloofs succeeded Jim Thomas, who had owned the franchise since April 6, 1992. The Maloof family’s interest in purchasing the Kings, Monarchs (WNBA) and ARCO Arena originated in 1997 when they contacted Thomas regarding the availability of the teams and arena. On January 14, 1998, the Maloofs completed the purchase of a minority limited partnership in the organization’s franchises and ARCO Arena. On January 15, 1999, the Maloofs subsequently purchased controlling interest, effective July 1, 1999. The NBA Board of Governors unanimously approved the ownership transfer on May 7, 1999, in New York, at which time the Board of Governors appointed Joe Maloof to the Board. The Kings franchise made its NBA debut in 1948 as the Rochester Royals under the ownership of Les Harrison.
