The Virginia Tech POWERADE team would like to thank the players and fans at Virginia Tech for a great intramural basketball season. Last night, teams fought it out to be crowned champions of various leagues including Women’s A, Co-Rec A, Co-Rec I, Men’s A and Men’s I.

Congratulations to all of our Champions!

GO HOKIES!

According to the Pike A team, who destroyed their opponent on Sunday evening, it was a pretty uneventful game.  Although the other team kept it close at the beginning of the first half, after that the game was basically over; Pike was winning by almost double what the other team had.  So why not turn it into a 3-point competition?  Everyone started shooting long shots.  Team star Mike Paleos hit 7 or 8 three pointers in a row in the second half!  Great job, Pike A

The men’s team “The Ridge,” has won their first playoff game giving them the opportunity to advance to round two. The final score was 48-38 as they broke away from a close game against German Club in the last few minutes.

The guys on The Ridge are mostly graduates of Centreville High School, in Centreville, Virginia, who have come together at the great university of Virginia Tech to form a team stacked with powerhouse players. Having played together for many years will help the squad in the next few rounds of the playoffs as the competition heats up.

Good Luck The Ridge!

Smash n’ Dash co-ed basketball team has earned the title of team of the week. Their passion for the game was apparent Monday night as they lost a tough battle to Sigma Chi/Kappa Delta 33-37. It was a fight to the last second but Smash n’ Dash just couldn’t hold off the star player on Sigma Chi/Kappa Delta, Donald Gutermuth. Meagan Riley and Lea Westrick of Smash n’ Dash met with the POWERADE reps after the game to tell us what went wrong.

“Our shots just wouldn’t fall,” Lea said.
“We did the best we could,” Meagan said.

They also noted that they were going to hold an extra practice this week to get ready for the PLAYOFFS.

On behalf of the CBS College Sports Network, we wish you GOOD LUCK Smash n’ Dash!!!
