The VT women's lacrosse team hosts North Carolina at 4 p.m. Wednesday at Thompson Field. The struggling Hokies are 4-10 overall and 1-2 in ACC play. I don't think I ever remember a point where the women's lacrosse team was any good, but that doesn't mean it won't see a big attendance figure Wednesday.
Wednesday's game will feature something called the "Greek Challenge" where the fraternity or sorority with the most members in attendance receives a $100 gift card to the business of its choice. My guess is you'll see a lot of greeks at Wednesday's game because from what I experienced in college greeks get excited about any opportunity to beat other greeks at anything.
Whether its raising money or drinking terrible 3.2 beer, greeks get a kick out of being the best at it. Hopefully it means a spirited atmosphere for the game against the 7-2 Tar Heels.
Attendance to women's lacrosse games are free at VT, but I assume the increased attendance will mean increased concession sales. And if the Hokies were smart and got that $100 gift card donated, it's all profit.
Linkage
Hokies
- Aaron McFarling has greater appreciation for the ADV era than I do.
- BCO really likes IPAs. I can't stand IPAs. To each his own.
- Tech Hoops gives its summer schedule.
Atlantic Coast Conference
- Enjoy it while you can boys. There's no spring break in the real world. /sobs uncontrollably. /applies to grad school.
- Jeff and Brian are too close to call in their Tournament pool. Jeff's only ahead because he had his wife pick his bracket.
- Pretty good motivational ploy by Roy during the LSU game.
- Apparently the near-empty Dolphin Stadium for Miami games isn't because 'Canes fans suck. It's because Miami fans suck in general.
- Spring practice starts at Georgia Tech.
Randomness
- Looks like all that money the Virginia Lottery gives to Virginia Public Schools didn't help Percy Harvin.
- Giglio looks at Gonzaga's history in the NCAA Tournament.
- Sad face.
- It was a bad weekend to be a Sabres fan.

They have something similar to that for Greek Week. If you stay through 3 innings of the baseball game you get your frat points. Then, after the 3rd, everyone leaves. Pretty lame.
Sidenote, our tennis team, when they were trying to get people to come to games would make dinner for the organization that brought the most members...that was an awesome idea.
