Oxford natives cheer on Hicks, ACC in Memphis
Posted Mar 24, 2017
A Duke fan and an NC State fan -- Jean and David Thompson live in Bartlett, Tenn., but are Oxford, N.C., natives. It was a no-brainer to head roughly 14 miles west into Memphis to visit the FedEx Forum for practice day ahead of the Sweet 16 Friday. "Just because we're ACC fans, ACC supporters," they said. And Isaiah Hicks supporters? "Oh, absolutely!"
