In this Selection Sunday episode I chat with Ryan Knotek about his experience playing college basketball at the University of New England while also doing undergraduate research. We then discuss his master's research and the work he is currently doing now at the University of Massachusetts Boston working towards his PhD. We then bring it back to basketball and have Ryan make a pick on who will win the NCAA men's tournament.

I have set up a bracket challenge group for both the men's and women's bracket so podcast listeners can compete against me and others to see who is the luckiest guess. The bracket group can be found on ESPN and is simply named The Fisheries Podcast or by clicking here.

I hope that you enjoy this episode with Ryan Knotek, hearing about all the cool projects he has been a part of and his basketball past. 

Main Point: Don't take your time in college for granted and it is important to leave no stone unturned in your research!
