Teams battle at Cary for all-campus bragging rights

Six teams. Four champions. Two campuses. One night.

The best squads from VCU’s five intramural basketball leagues will battle in a three-round tournament tonight at Cary Street Gym to determine all-campus bragging rights.

A-League champ “96 Bulls” are the favorites, earning a first-round bye after beating “Team Sparce” in Tuesday night’s title game. The run was tight up until the final six minutes of the second half when the Bulls broke it open to win 66-50.

For being the A-league runner-up, Sparce is scheduled to meet the winner of the B2 league, “Cobras”, in opening round action. However, Sparce, who made it to the A-league championship after surviving an overtime game against “Cantholdem”, may make the road to the all-campus title easier for the Cobras by possibly forfeiting Thursday’s game.

The winner of Wednesday night’s MCV A-League championship game earned a bye, while the winner of the medical campuses B league will face Greek League winner Theta Chi at 7 p.m.

Neither score from the medical campus was available at press time.
