Takeouts: weekend in college basketball, your winning cats, your favorite teachers

The World

SPORTS TAKEOUT: There’s a big game scheduled for college basketball this weekend, but it doesn’t involved Syracuse, Kansas, Kentucky, or any of the top-ranked teams. Takeaway sports contributor Ibrahim Adbul Matin joins us with a look at college basketball, where the Ivy League teams are heating up.

YOUR CATS TAKEOUT: You report, you decide! We have the winners of The Takeaway’s furry and furiously competitive cat show.

YOUR RESPONSES: For our last takeout, we hear from our listeners and their fond recollections of the teachers that made a difference in their lives.
