Caps Lose but GW Wins

So my snowy Saturday has come to an end with me watching Sportscenter after the close to three hour drive home this evening from the Caps game due to the roads. I felt the Caps did not put forth a very good effort this evening. I was most disappointed with the effort as I was sitting in the lower levels. The Caps ended up losing 6-3 to the Pens. The game wasn't as close as the score indicated. The Pens seemed to come out and played with a passion. Hopefully the last meeting between these two teams next month will turn out to be a victory for the Caps at MCI Center.

However, the day wasn't a complete loss for me sportswise. At least GW was able to pull out the win against St. Joe's today. I was really concerned with the game, GW was down by 8 after the first half, but then, they came out in the second and went on a 20-0 run. I couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing. However, that 20-0 run wasn't enough to allow GW to put the game away easily. They only ended up winning by 2, 64-62, but a win is a win, and the Colonials protected their national ranking, and now have the best start in university history at 20-1.
