Senior Will Sherrill connected on 4 3-pointers.

Perhaps Sabre poster 111Balz said it best about Will Sherrill on the EDGE board Wednesday morning: “Walked on, limped off with a little piece of our hearts.” Sherrill, honored on Senior Night along with Mustapha Farrakhan on Tuesday, doesn’t dazzle you with his athleticism or mystify opponents with endless ball skills. He doesn’t steal the show very often with his offense either, though his start against N.C. State fits the bill there.

No, Sherrill just does a whole lot of things right and helps give his team a better chance of winning. None of them are flashy, but his grasp of basketball fundamentals and team strategy are bonuses for a Virginia team in need of steadying players with experience. Oh and then there’s that whole playing on a broken leg thing too. That is one tough dude.
