The Sock 'Em, Bust 'Em Board Because that's our custom

Three more Capital Classic scenes

… then I’m headed back up I-79.

How about the fan line of the night?

Marshall’s Johnny Thomas fell under his basket and injured his left ankle. Play was stopped after WVU missed a layup on the other end and a yell came from Marshall’s student section.

“Huggins, give him a hug.”

Ouch.

Under-the-radar moment of the night?

Flowers committed his second foul with 4:56 to go and something was thrown to the court from the side of the arena where WVU fans were seated.

An official grabbed the object and went to the scorer’s table and the public address announcer, Kennie Bass of WCHS TV, asked fans to not throw items onto the floor.

Herrion grinned, shook his head and covered his face.

I’m telling you, he was worth the price of admission, provided you could see around the heads in front of you to get a glimpse of Herrion.

And the sign of the night?

During the final media timeout, five Marshall students came down from their seats to the baseline and unrolled a large sign with a message directed at WVU’s athletic director.

“Luck: Play the game.”

Looks like it was Marshall’s night on and around the court.
