Round 1 officially began yesterday (see March Madness Footwear Faceoff Round 1), and our Kicks On Court spotted some amazing college PEs!<\/p>\n<p>For example, a few of the University of California players wore some nice Jordan PEs including the Air Jordan 2009, the Air Jordan XXII and the Air Jordan 2.5. We also saw the March Madness Customized Nike Hyperdunk for Gonzaga, Duke and Memphis on the court. The latter school also featured a player sporting the Nike Air 1\/2 Cent! Last but not least, check out what University of North Carolina point guard Ty Lawson wore? Does he think more highly of LeBron James&#8217;s sneakers than Michael Jordan&#8217;s?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Jamal Boykin rebounding in the Air Jordan 2009 PE<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p align=\"center\">Demetri McCamey laying it up in the Nike Hyperdunk PE<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Gerald Henderson in the Customized Nike Hyperdunk PE<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Scottie Reynolds defending in the Jordan Melo M5.5<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em> <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Nate Linhart (left) in the Nike Zoom LeBron VI &#8220;Akron&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Darryl Roberts (left) and Chris McKnight (right) wearing the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier II &#8220;Akron&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">University of Akron mascot sporting the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier II &#8220;Akron&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Isaiah Thomas in the Nike Foamposite Lite<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Jamal Boykin (left) in the Air Jordan 2009 PE<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Jorge Gutierrez in the Air Jordan 2.5 PE<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Jamal Boykin (left) in the Air Jordan 2009 PE<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Danny Green in the Air Jordan 2.5 PE<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Patrick Christopher in the Air Jordan XXII PE<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Kemba Walker in the Air Jordan 11<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Antonio Anderson in the Nike Air 1\/2 Cent<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Robert Dozier rebounding in the Customized Nike Hyperdunk PE<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Osiris Eldridge shooting a jumper in the Air Jordan 12<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Eric Maynor (left) and Bradford Burgess (right) wearing the Nike Hyperdunk PE and the Nike Zoom Kobe IV &#8220;Del Sol&#8221;, respectively<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Ty Lawson nursing his injury in the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier II.
