Running has saved Christopher David’s life twice — and killed him once. Honored to tell the story of a cardiac arrest, a guardian angel, and a “miracle on Broad St.” at the Richmond Marathon. 🙏🏃🏃🏾♀️❤️🥇🌇📰👇 @RTDNEWS @American_Heart @SportsBackersPC

Tyrell Ward posted a team-high 18 points today on a ridiculous 92.2% true shooting percentage. Not gonna always shoot like that BUT, I think he is gonna be a KEY indicator of VCU’s success this year. I think he’s the purest scorer on this year’s team.

Biggest concern after today’s exhibition: VCU’s 3 bigs had ZERO rebounds. Evans & Tracey attacked the boards, but the Rams still gave up 20 offensive rebounds. Fairfield missed 43 shots. Rams must compete harder on the glass. Find motivation. #LetsGoVCU

@VCU_Hoops looked solid in today's exhibition against Fairfield. The Rams beat the Stags 82-64, shooting 52% from the field. Tyrell Ward led the team in points with 18 and Barry Evans led in boards with 11. Oh, and here's a dunk by Michael Belle: #VCU

Rams shot 73% inside arc, big upgrade from the game at Villanova. Coach said a part of that was he thought guys were trying to get fouled at Villanova as opposed to just trying to finish. Liked how he mentioned wanting to get more finishes via hard cuts. That’s great to hear.

On The Horn: @VCU_Hoops 82, Fairfield 64 in Rams final preseason tune-up ⚫️🟡🐑🏀 @RTDSports Postgame analysis from The Stu. A mixed bag this afternoon. VCU led throughout, but fans surely hoped for a more dominant display. Positives and negatives 👇🏻 https://t.co/ZN1Ujm9Lwc

FINAL @VCU_Hoops 82, Fairfield 64 Tyrell Ward game-high 18 pts, 6 of 8 from floor, 3 of 5 from 3. Jadrian Tracey 11 pts, 9 rebs, 5 assists. It was disjointed and a tad nervy for bits especially early 2H, but Rams led throughout, pulled away down stretch. @RTDSports

Man Tyrell Ward is one of those shooters that, when it falls, the ball makes that special splashy sound 💦

What’re our Lazar Djokovic nicknames of choice? Can we call him Djoker? The Lazar 🦎 King?

And there, finally, should be the KO blow for VCU. Lewis alley-oop to Djokovic precedes Ward jam on runout, TO Fairfield, 69-56 Rams with five minutes to play @RTDSports

Man Jadrian Tracey’s maturity and experience looks so vital to this VCU team. He’s got 9 pts, 8 rebs, 5 assists and a team-high 14-over plus-minus. Most vocal communicator on the court.
