VCU JOINS RICHMOND IN SWEET 16

The VCU Rams dismantled the Purdue Boilermakers defense last in a 94-76 win over Purdue in Chicago last night.  The Rams lead by 10 at the half and pulled away in the 2nd when the Boilermakers had n answer for the Rams offense.  With the win the Rams move on the Sweet 16 where they will face Florida State who upset Notre Dame last night.  The other team from the CAA George Mason got pounded by Ohio State 98-66 and the Richmond Spiders found out that they will face Kansas in the next round.  If both VCU and Richmond both when there next game they will face each other with the winner moving on to Final Four, again I thin of the teams from the City of Richmond will win but nor both on Friday night.  The Virginia baseball team rallied to tie the game in the 9th against Florida State but lost in the 10th to the Seminoles 12-11, evidently both pitching staffs were tire yesterday.  Well Mr. Bristol Kyle Busch won yesterdays race at Bristol holding off Carl Edwards for the win and with the win has won 5 straight Nascar events at the track, Tony Stewart & Kurt Busch are tied for the points lead.  MICKEY
