These folks took a time-out during the big game to talk to community journalist Miranda Adkins. Bet you didn't know that some basketball all-stars would make it out as well.

Stephen Curry and RJ Dixon were helping out at Roanoke College's basketball camp and decided to check out the event at Kiwanis field. Curry helped to put Davidson College on the national stage, and RJ Dixon is the top player at Catholic University in DC.

Retired Salem High School softball coach, Jim "Shorty" Wright, came out to the game, too, and he ran into a former player. Meaghan Berry, right, played for Wright ten years ago at Salem High School, then went on to play at Roanoke College. Her daughter Elizabeth already plays softball in Botetourt.
