Virginia scored 9 runs on 9 hits and 9 walks to win in 6 innings. Howard had 2 hits and 1 walk.

Recent games have proven that Beekman is not NBA ready. If he can't finish plays at the hoop in College he will be toast in the NBA. As for Franklin maybe this season will motivate him to continue to improve his game and strive to be more consistent. Bottom line, if both Franklin and Beelman return, we have the core to be a very talented and experienced backcourt, By adding Harris Gertrude and Mcneely we have solid depth.

With both Vander Plas and Gardner moving on and Caffaro graduating, Traudt will have open path for PT. If Shedrick returns then TB has interior depth. Dunn will get a clear shot at the 4 while Bond may prove to be a Justin Anderson type 6th man.

Bottom line, looks like "wait till next year" may actually be worth waiting on.

IU is for real. Very high quality hoops, better than anything the ACC has to offer.

Miami was up 25 and I changes channels. Then I see FL St. beats them on a bomb at the buzzer! WOW!

Dickson and LaSalla each scored twice. Comier took 12 shots with 8 on goal.

Another national title run starts today!
Wah🥍🥍wa!

Don’t like our chances…

Bressler and Layno combined to pitch a 1 hitter. Virginia had 10 hits led by Hylton, who was 3 for 4 with a HR. Seven other Lady Cavs had 1 hit each.

Virginia dominated the last two quarters coming out of a 6-6 tie at the end of two quarters. Clark led the team with 7 goals.

Preview: One last true road game on the slate for No. 6 UVa and it comes tomorrow in Chapel Hill (6 p.m., ESPN) where both teams could really use a win. @justin ferber breaks down the rematch with the Tar Heels as the Hoos go for the sweep.

Columbia outhit Virginia 6 to 5, but the Hoos got a solo home run by Teel in the 2nd, a sac fly by O'Ferrall in the 3rd, and added 2 runs in the 7th. Parker pitched the first 6 innings and gave up 6 scattered hits and just 1 run. Berry pitched 3 sharp innings with 3 Ks in the 9th. The two teams will meet for a second game around 5:30.

The first batter for Columbia hit a home run, and the Virginia pitchers held them to just 2 more runs on 4 hits after the first inning. Edgington started and pitched the first five innings to earn the win. Tonas pitched the 6th and allowed 1 unearned run while striking out 3. Hodorovich pitched the seventh and also allowed 1 unearned run and struck out 2. Blanco pitched the 8th and allowed 0 runs on 1 hit. Woolfolk closed the game by getting 3 up and 3 down with 2 Ks.
Virginia batters took advantage of wildness by the Columbia pitchers by scoring 3 in the 2nd on Godbout's 3-run home run and adding 3 more in the 3rd on Teel's RBI double and Anderson's 2 RBI single. Our bats came alive in the 6th when 5 consecutive hits added 4 more runs. Both teams score 1 run in the 7th to end the scoring. Godbout was 3 for 4 with 4 RBI.

Preview: @justin ferber sets the scene ahead of tomorrow night’s matchup in Chestnut Hill as No. 6 UVa looks to stay on track and sweep the Eagles (7 p.m., RSN).

Following his official visit to UVa recently, four-star Rivals150 wing Kon Knueppel talked to @HoustonWilson about his time in Charlottesville, his conversations with Tony Bennett, and what he thinks of the Wahoos.

Looking to buy 3 Uva party deck tickets for the lacrosse game in Naples tomorrow. Please let me know if anyone is looking to sell.

The WaPo had a great piece on Gill the other day covering his professional journey and current role with the Wizards. He is an impressive guy.

Wizards’ Culture Guy

Any tips on watching the game. I have Hulu Plus and it does not carry Bally Sports. Looks like ustvgo.us is no longer an option. Any help is appreciated. Go Hoos!!

Virginia scored 3 runs in both first and second innings before adding 7 runs in the 3rd and 1 more in the 4th. Oak is emptying the bench as O'Ferrall went 3 for 3 with 2 RBI, Gelof 3 for 3 with 4 RBI on a single double , and home run, Saucke 1 for 3, and Teel 2 for 2 are now rooting from the bench.

too much postgame emotional posting to put this in the game thread.

Early in the season someone (an analyst or opposing coach) noted TB and staff tweaked the packline this season and were forcing guards more to the sideline, I believe. Are we still doing this or something different? My eyes tell me something is different bc we are consistently allowing paint penetration and the ‘pack’ seems marginal at best this season. And when Shedrick is not around as a rim protector that seems to spell trouble. Maybe we went back to old ways with shed’s reduced minutes but amount of dribble penetration into the lane has made our defense looks avg at best.

Interested in real basketball analysis, not more complaining😂

One thing that has always perplexed me about Bennett is why he rarely has the team try for a two for one situation in the final minute of the first half. The last couple of games for example we get the ball with say around 50 seconds left in the half and instead of getting a shot off within 10 seconds to get the ball back a second time we run the clock down so the opponent gets the ball with less than 30 seconds left and can run the clock out. I am not advocating throwing up a prayer just to get one more possession, but they don't even seem to try and look for a shot in that situation until under 30 seconds and often end up with a rushed shot as the shot clock winds down instead of going quickly to get an early good shot and then guarantee another possession with some time left to get another good shot off. Does anyone have an ideas why he doesn't try to get those two possessions and settles for one almost every time?

Tip coming up in just a few minutes. Updates and such to come in this thread.

As always, have at it folks...

For his comments about Miller

So thankful for Tony Bennett and UVa.

I know we may not be the cream of the crop as a conference but I don’t think the stuff that happened and covered up would fly in the ACC

What Basketball recruits have we offered & are still working on for 2024 & 2025? Can someone post the list and an update on where we are with each kid?
Would really love to know where our future point guard will come from also?

On Episode 498 of the CavsCorner Podcast (“Backwards Brain”), we talk about UVa’s recent wins, what they tell us heading to BC tonight, and the state of things as March looms.
