The Virginia men’s soccer team last competed nearly two weeks ago in a disheartening 3-0 defeat in the ACC Quarterfinals against Notre Dame. After making it to the ACC Championship game last season, this was not the stepping-stone the Cavaliers wanted.
Following its convincing 8-0 victory last Friday, the second-seeded Virginia women’s soccer team will enjoy a week of rest before its next matchup — an invaluable asset for a Cavalier squad which has played a 20-game season and is heading into a potential Friday-Sunday, second and third round NCAA tournament schedule this weekend.
The Major League Soccer playoffs began Oct. 29. If you’re sad you missed it, then cheer up, because you’ve still got a month left to catch these exciting games, including a pair of conference final games this upcoming Sunday. Still not convinced? Let me try to persuade you.

Ever since the Virginia women’s soccer team arrived at spring camp more than seven months ago, the focus has been on getting back to the NCAA tournament and avenging last season’s heartbreaking College Cup loss to UCLA in penalty kicks. Throughout the regular season, the team spoke of ambitious postseason goals, while reiterating that the next game on the schedule would be the most important.
Virginia men’s basketball coach Tony Bennett announced Wednesday afternoon that the team signed the bulky Brewster Academy senior forward Jarred Reuter to a National Letter of Intent. Earlier in the day, Virginia women’s basketball coach Joanne Boyle also announced high school senior post players Debra Ferguson, Moné Jones and Shakyna Payne would all head to Charlottesville for the 2015-16 season.
For most high school athletes, making it to the NCAA is an unachievable dream. Though less than four percent of all high school women's basketball players make it to the next level, in the last month, at the ripe age of 13, middle school students Jada Peebles and Deja Kelly have seemingly realized their childhood dreams of playing collegiate basketball.
With the regular season in the rearview mirror for the fourth-ranked Virginia women’s soccer team, the Cavaliers now face one of their toughest tests in the first round of the ACC tournament this weekend.

Just as the multi-colored foliage that carpeted the ground around Panorama Farms indicated that the calendar year was winding down, the field of 279 runners assembled for the ACC Championships also spoke to the waning phase of the cross country season.
Virginia wrestling had a season for the ages last year, tallying 18 wins, only one shy of the program high set in 2011-12. But head coach Steve Garland’s team is not content with being very good or even great — a Garland team strives for excellence.
Sixty-two days ago, Virginia began its cross country season at Panorama Farms. Those 62 days saw the men and women sweep the home invitational and take to the road to test their abilities against the nation’s best.

English is my dad’s second language, so throughout Fall Break he would see reports on ESPN about Jameis Winston, but he didn’t know what they were about. He asked me what Winston had done this time and wondered whether he was going to be suspended. I wondered the same thing, but of all the “Developing Stories” and red-highlighted text on Sportscenter, nothing mentioned a suspension of the Florida State quarterback. The school is investigating an alleged sexual assault in 2012 and more recent news that Winston had signed autographs for money.
The Virginia women’s rowing team once again dominated its collegiate competition at the 50th annual Head of the Charles Regatta in Boston this weekend, earning the title of top collegiate crew in the Championship Eights for the fourth consecutive year.

You’d be forgiven if you said you did not expect much from the Icelandic people on the global stage.

Before Scandinavian settlers arrived around 800 AD, the island’s only resident mammal was the arctic fox. The Black Death hit the country TWICE in the 15th century, wiping out roughly half the population each time. Iceland’s historical claims to fame are limited to its fish and aluminum exports, numerous geothermal landmarks and being home to the northernmost capital city in the world.
