Trees and powerlines are
coming down all across the area.

Appalachian Power reports
about 14-thousand customers have lost
electricity... and that number is
expected to grow overnight.

APCO is asking customers NOT
to take matters into their own hands.
Trying to remove trees or branches from

Wasps vs Tigers The second game this afternoon
featured Emory and Henry the 4 seed
taking on 5th Seed Hampden Sydney.

The Tigers blew open a
close game at halftime. On the break,

the pretty passing to Lane Medlin who
spins and puts in the baby hook as part
of a 23 to 8 run.

Former Roanoke Catholic
standout Turner King then pushes it up
to Mike Edwards who goes strong to the
rack for 2 more Sydney points.

Emory rallied late in
this one. *CG final Hampden Sydney Camillo Weinz buries a three ball from 102 the corner pocket. But the Tigers held Emory & Henry on to advance 102 to 100.

session had Virginia Wesleyan the top
seed in the tournament taking on
Washington and Lee.

The Marlins maybe the only team
UN-happy with the new floor at the

of the old one. They won 2 straight
ODAC tournament titles and a National
Championship last season on that floor.

Marlins vs Generals The Generals hoping that they
could make the new digs a house of
horrors for Wesleyan.

The Marlins made themselves right
at home. Antonio Alexander will use
the Defender to get himself open for
the 3-Pointer and he takes advantage
burying it from deep.

Generals were a bit overmatched
in this one but Greg Bienemann did show
off some pretty moves as he takes the
bump and finishes with the fade away in
the lane. .
*CG final Washington & Lee Marlins obviously like the new 48 floor at the Civic Center. Terrell Virginia Wesleyan Dixon to Ton Ton Balenga on the break 82 for the lay-up. Virginia Wesleyan
begins defense of their title with the
82 to 48 win.
