The Virginia Cavaliers will be back in action at the JPJ Arena against Virginia Tech, the Cavs will be trying to improve on there last effort when the were blown out at Duke.

They are calling for a wintry mix here in CH later tonight and Thursday morning before it all changes to rain later Thursday, however it is going to be pretty cold all the way through Sunday.

I heard on the news this morning that arguing may be good for the brain, maybe I should take up arguing a little bit more. MICKEY
