Anybody know what time tomorrow's championship game is to be played? They normally show those on CBS, so was wanting to try to watch it.

Disregard, I finally found it online. 3'oclock CBS.

I recall the great Fairmont teams back in the day, led by the legendary Joe Retton. I always thought he was the best coach in the state, regardless of division.

Glenville beat Fairmont in a 2 out of 3 series for the right to go to the NAIA national tournament in 1971. Fairmont had a guy named Butch Haswell who could shoot the lights out but they couldn't handle the mighty Pioneers....every time JoJo (as we called him) got up to whine (he did that a lot) we'd scream ***** jojo *****...those were the days:cool2:[cheers]:pimp:

I heard Travis Jones say on local radio today that this would be the first basketball national championship won by a West Virginia school. I guess that Travis aint buyin' the delusional WVU homer argument that WVU's NIT crown in 1942 was the National Championship.

When I lived in Glenville I could see their gym from my house. I never missed a GSC game until I left there in 72. I could say the same for GSC football, whose stadium was a 10 minute walk from my house. Oh how we hated Fairmont State in both sports and how we hated Joe Retton ! Funny thing is I ended up attending Fairmont State but always pulled for GSC whenever the two met. Still do.

GSC has moved their athletic facilities to Mineral Road out where the old college farm and Forestry School were. State of the art facilities for a small college.
