Bradford Burgess  is Virginia Commonwealth’s only  senior this season, the basketball team’s top scorer  and a Final Four veteran who leads the Rams into the Greensboro Coliseum tonight against UNCG.

But first, Burgess plans to lead the Rams to Yum Yum for the hot dogs and ice cream he grew up eating during six-week summer visits with his grandparents.
