Hokie ClubThe Hokie basketball teams will be spending the Thanksgiving break outside of the contiguous United States, as the men travel to Anchorage, Alaska, to play in the Carrs/Safeway Great Alaska Shootout, and the women visit Freeport, Bahamas, to compete in the Junkanoo Jam.
As a way to keep up with the Hokies and their travels, a pair of blogs will be set up on hokiesports.com that will be updated regularly by athletics communications officers Bill Dyer (Alaska correspondent) and Torye Hurst (Bahamas correspondent).
The men’s team arrived in Alaska late on Sunday night and the women’s team will land in the Bahamas on Tuesday. Be sure to check the blogs each day to see how the trips are going.
