Good morning and happy Monday. It's April 1st, if you can believe it. It's also April Fool's Day, but there are no jokes here. We are here to bring you the latest in the world of sports as it relates to a little bit of pop culture as well, so you can join the sports conversation. Why?
Because being able to talk sports is just another tool in your tool belt of success, whether that's in the office or in your personal life, because sports is one of the last non -controversial things you can talk about in the world. So yet, here we are. So let's dive right in by starting off with Women's March Madness.
Now, all eyes will be on the national championship rematch tonight when Caitlin Clark in Iowa take on defending champions LSU Tigers with head coach Kim Mulkey and star player Angel Reese. It's going to be a phenomenal game, so make sure you tune in for that. Right after that game will be number three, UConn who will be playing number one ranked USC for a spot in the final four.
Now North Carolina State and South Carolina are already in the Final Four and that Final Four, well, it will take place on Friday. On the men's side, we have our Final Four set. We have number 11, North Carolina State, number one ranked Purdue, number four ranked Alabama, number one ranked Yukon. Now North Carolina State has been on a Cinderella run. They're on a nine game winning streak and they are on fire and a lot of fun to watch.
Also number one ranked Purdue, it's their first final four in 44 years. Number four ranked Alabama, it's their first ever final four. The men's final four is on Saturday night. Now before you go, let's talk a little Kansas City Chiefs football. They made a splash with the addition of former European rugby star, Louis Reese Zammet to their roster. He's been a member of the Welsh national team since 2020 and is coming over to play on the Chiefs.
Also in Chiefs News, police are searching for Rashee Rice, whose car was involved in a six vehicle accident in Texas. A Corvette and Lamborghini, the Corvette happened to be registered to Rice, were speeding in the far left -hand lane on the highway and the drivers lost control and the Lamborghini traveled onto the shoulder and hit the center median wall. Both those cars are still seeking information on them. So if you know something, obviously call police.
And last but certainly not least, There are a long list of baseball players who are refusing to wear the new Fanatics uniform pants. They're still wearing their pants from last season because these new Fanatics pants are see -through. These are big name players like Alex Bregman from the Astros, Zach Wheeler from the Phillies. This long list of players are saying, no thank you, don't need the world to see what I have going on under there. So has Fanatics changed anything yet?
Not yet, but stay tuned for more on that. Have a great... week ahead. Make sure you tune in on Wednesday for our podcast where we talk about players and athletes who have basically lost it all on gambling in sports. A hot topic obviously with Shohei Ohtani right now. And also sign up for our Wednesday wisdom email newsletter that comes out once a week. Have a great week ahead.
