  • Singletary: Simply Sensational

    I've been incredibly busy all morning so I didn't get to blog about the win last night. But here it is. Sean Singletary scored 8 points in a span of about 26 seconds last night to take the Cavaliers from a 4 point deficit (70-74) to a 3 point lead 78-75. The whole series of plays - two free throws...

  • Hoos Win First CBI Game

    Well, it certainly wasn't a big win. And it certainly wasn't pretty. And it certainly won't help Dave Leitao sleep any better tonight. But the Hoos live to play another day, beating Richmond 66-64 at the John Paul Jones arena. We now play ODU who defeated Rider today 68-65. The game is on...

  • Virginia Bows Out Early

    The Virginia Men's Basketball team continued its streak of unimpressive performances in the ACC Tournament this year, losing in the first round to Georgia Tech - a team they had beaten in Atlanta less than two weeks earlier. The first 25 minutes or so were just fine, but it went downhill from there...

  • Senior Night: Memorable in Many Ways

    I've been doing a lot of praying lately to various sports gods - praying that Sean Singletary's career at U.Va., along with Chris Long's career at U.Va., would never come to an end. Apparently, no one was listening. Last night marked the final home game (save for possible NIT or CBI appearances...

  • Cavs Win, Zoll Sets Record

    Sharnee Zoll set the all-time ACC assists record last night during U.Va.'s 83-71 win over Clemson. We all knew that the record was going to be broken this year (she crept up on it very quickly) but it was nice that it happened at JPJ rather than @Duke this weekend or some other venue. The crowd gave...

  • A Moral Victory

    We lost to the #5 team in the country last night by 1 point. We were winning at one point and we were never down by more than 8 (I believe) in the 2nd half. Perhaps this is a pivot game, where we start to see the team pull together for a nice ACC Tourney run and a run through the NITs. My two favorite...

  • Women's Basketball Versus Rhode Island Recap

    Note: This is just a copy&paste of a post I made on TheSabre, but I wanted it archived here for my own purposes as well. Someone mentioned below that URI had 19 turnovers at the half. That's true. But the part that was left out of that was that we had 13 steals at the half. So they weren't...

  • Xavier Game Recap

    This should tell you my thoughts on the game... A few friends asked me what happened during the Xavier - why were we so terrible. My reply? "I don't know. I turned it off and watched the VT game." I never stop watching a UVA sporting event early unless I have to leave for some reason. It...

  • Mike Scott Leads Hoos Past Pirates

    I'm not sure Mike Scott was the player of the game last night. Mac and Jim named Meyinsse (career high 9 points, 9 rebounds) as their player of the game. One could make an argument for Adrian Joseph (team high 19 points, 3 rebounds). But Mike Scott is the player I'm talking about the next morning...
