WenD08,
Coppin State, which is in Maryland I think, actually beat a number 2 team also in 1997 (I found this out from the espn.com site), but you are right, all Black college grads should be proud of Hampton for their efforts. Those two schools are 2 of 4 in the history of the NCAA tourney where a numbr 15 seed has beat a number 2. I just hate I did not pick them in my pool!!!
My manager's husband is a Hampton Grad (from the late 70s) and she said he was up until 2 a.m. "celebrating" via the telephone with his college buddies. I thought that was real cute
