Perhaps Old Dominion’s use of the fast-break during a key first-half run of its win over Marshall Thursday was the most fitting tribute that the Monarchs could have given on ‘Sonny Allen Night’ at Chartway Arena.
The family of former Marshall and Old Dominion basketball great Sonny Allen gathered at Chartway Arena Thursday night as the University paid tribute to Allen, who will be inducted into the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame April 30.
