BEAMER REMEMBERS
Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer paid tribute to the memory of a former teammate and the 74 other members of the Marshall University football team, coaching staff and community killed in a 1970 plane crash.
Beamer laid a 3-inch by 5-inch piece of stone at the nearby Spring Hill Cemetery memorial in Huntingon, W.Va., about 2 1/2 hours before the game between his No. 13 Hokies and the Thundering Herd.
He was teammates at Virginia Tech with Frank Loria, who went on to become an assistant at Marshall under fellow Tech graduate Rick Tolley. Tolley also was killed in the crash at the nearby Tri-State Airport.
