    Miranda is already a champion!!!  
    Having two close relatives who battled Non-Hodgins lymphoma and Ewing Sarcoma this past year, I know the battle she was in.

    Really odd situation. My son and some buddies went down this morning. The Madison team had already left before the  announcement.

    Definitely, hate she got hurt. Sounds like her not pitching could possibly cost Madison a chance at appearing in championship game???? We can agree to disagree about who's better, Osborne and Estes are obviously the cream are the crop in 2A.

    My families (both growing up and current) have had an unusual Tech-UVA mindset.  Different members of the family had their favorite school but never pulled against the other team.  I'm a Hokie first but still pull for the Hoos as they represent the Commonwealth and Conference.
    My earliest memory of college basketball was watching the '76 ACC Tourney with my dad.  I remember us being so excited about UVA's unlikely run which ended with Virginia shocking the tobacco road elites by claiming the title. That winter I pretended to be Wally Walker with a makeshift nerf hoop in my house.  The Ralph years were particularly special but the title proved elusive .  We all watched more special teams come and go but a natty seemed agonizingly out of reach.  And now, 43 years after a young Terry Holland won UVA's first ACC Tourney, Tony Bennett has now brought home the ultimate trophy.
    Congratulations, Hoos fans!

    Bruce may have finally figured out how to keep things just outside of arms length reach of him directly.   I personally wouldnt trust him around the corner of the building.  Heckuva coach who knows how to work the press but hes slime.

    He’s playing like he’s hurt, TBH.  Clutch move in the Purdue game to put us ahead for good though.

    Kuhn’s become known as an arm killer, and that’s precisely why UVA doesn’t land top-flight pitching talent anymore.  Also the reason UVA’s slided toward being a .500 team and is missing NCAA Tournaments now.

    I said this earlier and i believe it to be still true. ER had the talent to win the title. However, the coach has much to learn about post season play.  Radford took away a big cog and ER coach could not adapt. I’ll write it off to inexperience...but the man has to learn from this...so far, he had not shown the ability to improvise, adapt and overcome.

    Great City...playing against Gate City in the late 70s and early 80s was “a unique experience”  to say the least. Our players and fans were exposed to all manner of intimidation attempts, slurs (racial and otherwise), and verbal attacks from the fans. Didn’t matter the sport either. We took it as a challenge. Our coaches warned us to not get caught up in the environment there. I always looked forward to playing at GC because of the extra incentive of trying to shut up the 35 year old letterman jacket wearing loudmouths in the stands.  But I never recall any cheap shots by the players; physical play, yes.  Cheap shots, no.  
    What does that have to do with this current debate?  Not much.   Just some firsthand historical experiences.

    I hope Gate City posters realize what they have accomplished. I am officially calling it: in the previous six months of material posted on SWVASports, they have officially surpassed Abingdon as the "most disliked fan base by their neighbors" in SWVA.
