COLONIALS WIN UGLY, VIRGINIA AT GEORGIA TECH

Well I guess sometimes you have to win ugly, well yesterday sure was one of those days as the Colonials pulled out 5-4 win over Meadowbrook.  For some reason when we go to that place we never seem to play very well, in the last 7 years it seem every game has been pretty close out there for the most part.  We only had 4 hits in the game and fortunately we were able to push a run across in the top of the 7th  and held on for the win, Josh Markins picked up his 2nd win in as many days.  We are scheduled to play Blessed Sacrament Huguenot tonight weather permitting.  The Virginia baseball team starts a big ACC series today at Georgia Tech in a battle for 1st place in the ACC.  The New York Rangers suffered a huge loss last night losing to the Atlanta Thrashers 3-0, with the loss the Rangers do not control there own destiny and now will need some help to get into the playoffs.  The Nascar Sprint Cup Series will be at the Texas Motor Speedway this weekend.  MICKEY
