The AFP on WREL: The surprisingly competitive ACC

Chris Graham

AFP editor Chris Graham joins WREL’s “Online with Jim Bresnahan” to talk sports.

The segment begins with a look across the local college-basketball landscape. We start with the ACC, which is not going at all according to conventional wisdom, with Duke losing at Florida State last week, and North Carolina’s struggles continuing. Can the ACC get more than the couple of teams into the NCAA tournament that had seemed to be the conference’s ceiling as recently as a week ago? Chris seems to think so.

A look at JMU’s run through the CAA and VMI in the Big South wrap us up.
