My favorite piece of trivia about that game ...


When Wally Lancaster fouled out with 3:33 left to go in the first overtime, he had actually outscored Bimbo 39-38 at that point.

With Wally on the bench, Bimbo scored 13 more points in the rest of the first OT and the second OT.

Bimbo's 51 points were a Metro Conference record, but not a Virginia Tech record. Allan Bristow still holds the VT single-game scoring record with 52 against GW in 1973.
