More ACC Mascots






We thought we'd get all the ACC mascots in (the rest are on my other blog "The Daily Vampire").

In my rush to get the first entries up, I forgot to mention that the University of North Carolina's women's gymnastics team, which is actually having a better year than the UNC men's basketball team (I wonder if UNC gymnastics coach Derek Galvin has brought this up the last time he ran into Roy Williams ........yeah, probably not) will be hosting West Virginia University in Chapel Hill. The meet starts at 1 p.m. on Saturday afternoon.

Despite losing to the highly-ranked University of Florida team in Gainesville last week, the 'Heels gymnastics team scored impressively well.

Kara Wright, a senior from Virginia Beach, was named EAGL gymnast of the week for her 39.2 score during the meet with the Gators.

Her teammate Christine Nguyen, a senior from Plano, Tex., has also won that honor several times.

As far as men's basketball is concerned, I would love to see the Virginia Tech Hokies or the North Carolina State Wolfpack win it all, but yeah....of course, Duke will win it all, but top-seeded Syracuse fell to Georgetown today at the Big East Tournament in Madison Square Garden.

But, Coach K is not known for choking......well except for that time they fell to VCU in the opening round of the NCAA tourney, but I don't expect that to happen in Greensboro.
