Default Never Been More Proud Of My Colleges!!!

I started my college career at Barton College (Wilson, NC), and finished my education at Virginia Commonwealth (Richmond, VA). Neither school was really known by anybody in regards to their athletic departments (IE, 99% of the US population had never heard of either school).

VCU:
Beat Duke in the 1st round of the NCAA basketball championships, then lost in the 2nd round after a strong, respectable comeback against Pitt, in OT. Although Duke was not much of a team this year, they are a landmark in college basketball, and the fact that VCU stepped up and beat them is a big deal. VCU's comeback against Pitt, only to lose in OT, is also a memorable experience.

Props to the Rams for a great season!!!!

Barton:
WOW!!!
Winners of the NCAA Basketball Division II championship!!!! The comeback against Winona St is impressive to say the least. Winona St had won 57 games straight!!!! Barton was down by 7 in the last 40 seconds, and then, possibly, the most exciting 40 seconds of basketball occurred.

It doesn't matter if you know either team, or even like basketball...........this is great footage!!!

Props to Barton in becoming NCAA Division II Champions!!!!
