[ATrain]

They lost to Radford and GOT KILLED by W&M...we need to win this one

[PAmedic]

at least they look happy

[Stevev]

This is our opportunity to finally knock these gals off. Looking at the results they look very beatable to say the least.

[absturgill]

looks like a good crowd on hand

[absturgill]

from the camera angle they just showed. great crowd on hand. The girls have been playing great so far

[Stevev]

Those 3 point shots are just not falling for either team. Tech is stone cold from the field but it doesn't seem we are lighting it up either. Megan is off her game right now.

[El Scorcho]

Both teams are having trouble shooting the ball for sure. Let's hope we come out with some rhythm in the second half.

[El Scorcho]

The two turnovers before the half killed.

[TIMSCAR20]

Pretty good crowd indeed. 6 point 1st half lead. Meredith Hollyfield just kicked it back to Ray and Tim. I almost got in my car and drove back to Lynchburg but I didn't think I could make it in 2 minutes. Ray and Jaimie are doing a great job though.

[absturgill]

I heard that Tim and thought of you but jamie is doing a good job with Tim tonight

[TIMSCAR20]

I heard that Tim and thought of you but jamie is doing a good job with Tim tonight

Once again, Brett, I am NOT there You mean Jamie is doing a good job with RAY

[El Scorcho]

Tim and Tim sure are doing a great job tonight.

[Sly Fox]

Sorry I'm late to the party.

So what's the scoop, fellas. The stats look dead even with Megan being Megan.

[TIMSCAR20]

Tim and Tim sure are doing a great job tonight.

Ok, that is the kind of line that will always keep me on this board and laughing. Those are the kinds of lines we used to routinely get from Luconn and Libertine. Funny stuff

[El Scorcho]

So what's the scoop, fellas. The stats look dead even with Megan being Megan.

We had a ten point lead just prior to the half. Two quick turnovers in the last minute and VT was back within 6. Since then we've been a defensive mess. Our offense is also starting to slow.

[Sly Fox]

It looks like Megan is forcing it a bit right now.

[Sly Fox]

Can I either team hit anything right now?

The answer is no.

[El Scorcho]

What the heck is all over the ball tonight? No one can hold on to it.

[Sly Fox]

Finally a bucket!

Perhaps a run .... ?

[Sly Fox]

Tied at 47 with 4 to go

[Sly Fox]

VT FT and they lead by one with 2 to go

[Sly Fox]

Offensive foul gives VT the ball with :50 to and 1-point lead.

[Sly Fox]

Correction ... it was FTs and the Lady Hokies hit both to go up by three.
