The Virginia women's basketball team will look to maintain its undefeated season when it faces the Liberty Flames, also unbeaten, tonight at 7 in Lynchburg. The Cavaliers (2-0) will have to find new ways to beat the Flames (2-0), who will have the advantage in size when they take the court tonight.
The win was emphatic. Poignant. Lopsided. And yes, comical. It started as I was walking through the assembled tailgating masses and spotted a Maryland fan in full Terrapin regalia including -- and I only wish I was making this up -- a red plastic turtle hat complete with short, stubby head, checkered shell, four stout feet and a small tail protruding from the rear.
