High fives all around to our “Sweet Sixteen” authletes for putting on quite a show for us in Round Three, and congrats to our “Elite Eight” authletes, who move on to Round Four, which starts … NOW! Authletes, here are your Round Four words! They are listed in the order that your names appear on the official bracket. The winner of each of these matchups wins their respective “regional” bracket and will join the 2015 “Final Four”.

Poems are due by 8:00am Central Daylight Time on Monday, March 23rd.
Authletes: the poem length limit for Round Four is still sixteen (16) lines! Once again, the line limit will be strictly enforced. All lines count toward the sixteen line limit (other than completely blank lines). Poems that go beyond the line limit or that do not use the assigned word correctly will not be posted; you will need to edit and re-submit to meet these requirements.
The authlete in each matchup who wins 2 out of 3 of the Public Vote, the Authlete Vote, and the Classroom Vote will move on to this year’s Final Four!
Enjoy the madness …
