SCROLL TO BOTTOM OF PAGE FOR PICK 5 RESULTS

Two weeks before his 26th birthday, former Auburn basketball player Ty Cressman (Greensboro, NC) became a Pick 5 legend by clinching his second title in three years, sewing up his second Pick 5 payout before Final Four play started. Relying on the same strategy that netted his 2024 Pick 5 title, Ty threw caution to the wind and successfully banked on higher-seeded teams.

Ty's 75-point total fell just shy of the 76-point record set by his father, Nate Cressman (Greensboro, NC), in our first Pick 5 contest in 2023. A record 108 entrants participated in the 2026 Pick 5 contest.
