Barack Obama fills out brackets for the 2018 NCAA Tournaments, picks his niece’s team to beat Maryland in first round

Following up on a tradition he started when he was in the White House, former president Barack Obama filled out March Madness brackets and posted his predictions on Twitter. His niece, Leslie Robinson, a senior forward for Princeton, will play in the NCAA tournament. The Tigers, seeded at No. 12 in the Kansas City Region, earned an automatic bid as the champions of the Ivy League Tournament. They will face No. 5-seed Maryland at noon ET on Friday, March 16. Obama’s bracket has Princeton beating Maryland then losing to NC State in the second round.
