The Dark Ages, aka When UVa Hoops Mattered

When I was a young buck I had a book about the history of UVa basketball, and there was an awesome photo from the end of this game of a scramble for the ball, and tucked in Lee Raker's shorts as he dove was the pair of scissors they would use seconds later to cut down the nets. I can't find that photo online, since legislation has of course been passed to keep Raker and Jeff Lamp off the internet, so. Sigh.- XMASTIME
GOT THE BOOK! Thanks Amazon!

Looking through it, I remember every single photo. Except I had remembered the photo wrong - Raker had the scissors in his shorts as Lamp came off the floor, not during actual play. Oh well. Sue me!
