VT with an early 1-0 lead. We really need this one. I don't want to hope for the correct 3-way tiebreaker with BC and VT for the last spot in the ACC Tournament.

The younger Stinson doesn't appear to have it today. 3-0 Hokies after one.

Red Raider revenge is mid-week. We need to win the BC series in Boston in 2 weeks before they use the field for football parking.
