On Monday night, Maryland’s women’s basketball team defeated Princeton, who has President Barack Obama’s niece on the team, in the second round of the NCAA Tournament to give them their first loss of the season. President Obama picked Princeton to win the matchup over Maryland, as well as advance to the final four, losing to his national champions UConn.
After the game, Maryland’s coach Brenda Frese brought out a cardboard cutout of the president dressed in a Maryland jersey and said “Sorry, man, but we had to bust your bracket!” while the Maryland players shook and hit the cutout.
