For athletes there are moments which are memorable. Some are the ones a player anguishes over, like a missed shot that would have won a game.
Then there are the victories. Some, even when not pretty, are special to be remembered forever. So it will be for Red Storm players who observed a two-game tournament filled with drama and a lot of fight.
It was not pretty, and at the end of the year, it is only an early-season tournament. But credit need be given to all competitors of the Legends Classic at the Barclay Center.
When the Johnnies walked off the court victorious after a stunning overtime victory over the Virginia Commonwealth Rams, a VCU fan accepted congratulations for his team’s performance.
