GRAPHIC=VMI Ferrum and V-M-I may not have a



lot in common, but tonight on the
basketball court they were very
similar. Both teams have first year
head coaches. Both teams have 1 win on
the season and both teams like to put
up a lot of points.

Keydets vs Panthers Bill Tharp's Division 3 Panthers
on the road trying to pull the upset
over the Division 1 Keydets.

Looked like a shooting drill for
both teams in the first half, Ferrum's
Keith Harris getting into the act with
the three-pointer to give his team a 4
point lead.

Matt Murrer doing his part for
V-M-I on the night, he dials it up from
long distance as well. He led the
keydets in scoring with 18 points.

The Panthers top scorer was Rob
Fuller with 24. He made 5 of 8 shots
from behind the arc in a see-saw
battle.

But in the second half V-M-I
pulled away, Travis Holmes the one out
in front of the fastbreak, with the

mini-dunk we'll call it.
*CG final Ferrum The Keydets showing they can go 74 inside as well, Preston Beverly with VMI the nice baby hook, it's good, add 97 another 1 for the free throw and V-M-I
beats Ferrum 97 to 74.

WHAS Jermaine Brucknor and Kevin :00 Steenberge led a balanced and patient
Richmond attack as the Spiders led for
most of the first half and had an 11
point cushion with just over 15 minutes
to play. *CG final Richmond

Louisville #5 season-high 30 points in the second

53 half and the fifth ranked Cards rallied

from a 10-point deficit to beat
Richmond 53-45 at the Colonial Classic.

GRAPHIC=GATOR BOWL Virginia Tech announced tonight


that it has sold out its ticket
allotment for the Gator Bowl. All 12
thousand 7 hundred and 50 tickets are
gone.

However, bowl orders were taken
weeks ago, and at that time no one was

thinking about a return trip to
Jacksonville.

The President of the Gator Bowl -
Rick Catlett - says he thinks the crowd
will be fine and that only about half
of Tech's potential traveling fan base
was in town this past Saturday for the
ACC championship.

(END SOT) RICK CATLETT



There will be plenty of incentive
to get that 11th win, but it will take
some doing to match the crowds that
Tech has taken to Northern Florida in
the past.

In their four previous Gator Bowl
appearances - they took over the city.

Catlett and the Gator Bowl folks

- know that why there's a chance some
of those fans may pass this year - the
Hokies were simply too much of a known
quality to pass on this year.

Four-thousand Santas of all
shapes and sizes joined in a charity
run in Great Britain.

They wound their way around a
six-kilometer course.

The organizers hope the
sprinting santas will raise more than
150-thousand Euros, or about
175-thousand dollars, giving charities
an early Christmas present. (END VO) (END VO)
