The big boys battle in out on ?Tobacco Road?, as the #7 ?Duke boys? try to take down the #5 ?Demon Deacons?. Duke managed to pull off the upset against #2 ranked North Carolina last week, and then went and lost to Maryland. Which Duke team will show up this ?weekender?? The ?Deacs? will want to win this one because of not only rivalry but to ensure themselves a #1 seed in the NCAA tournament. This is ACC basketball at it?s finest!

East Coast vs. West Coast, no it?s not Biggie vs. Tupac it?s the 2005 NBA All-Star game! This offensive minded shoot out is always fun and in addition to the game itself we will also be booking the slam dunk contest, 3-point shootout, and ?rookie vs. sophomore? challenge, MVP winner and more! It?s not just a game, it?s an entire ?weekender? worth of fun!



BOXING:



H. EASTMAN (40-1, 34 KO?s)

Eastman has 34 KO?s and his only loss is to former title holder William Joppy, so he is not a complete slouch, as both his record and the total rounds for this fight indicate!
