ETTRICK, VA - The Virginia State football team's improbable run to the CIAA championship game is going to be a tough act to follow. But the men's basketball team is not shying away from the challenge. Like the football team, the Trojans were picked to finish fourth in the Northern Division and are looking to duplicate that success.
"They raised the bar for us," said senior Brandon Plummer. "Since they went to the championship, we knew we have to come in and set the tone, just like they did." So far, so good. VSU defeated visiting Pfeiffer 65-52 in the season opener at Daniel Gymnasium Monday.
