Any list of must see Arenas of mine would include Cameron Hall at Virginia Military Institute in Lexington, Virginia.
My life-long Love đ for all things Military might have a heavy influence on this fact but the Ceremonial part of the evening is worth the price of admission.
If I am residing on the East Coast during Hoops season then getting to a VMI home game is a must. Tonight they are hosting a tiny school đĢ from Front Royal, Virginia called Christendom. The Crusaders campus is located just a few miles from our decade long Home Office đĸ.
Tonight we have a contest that involves Basketball đ, Religion and Our Military !!! A Trifecta of reasons to enjoy the next couple of hours.
Kansas – Michigan State and Duke – Kentucky đ highlight the national scene tonight on ESPN but for now they all take a back seat đē to the Keydets and the Crusaders because somethings just matter that much.
VMI 21-6 after 4 minutes â has the place rocking already…..
The Crusaders only have 8 players in uniform tonight and VMI loves to push the tempo so it could get interesting…
