No. 3 men’s tennis downed two conference opponents on the road over the weekend — first defeating North Carolina 4-2 Friday evening then continuing the streak Sunday when it defeated No. 15 Duke 6-1. The Cavaliers (12-4, 4-0 ACC) have yet to lose a conference matchup so far in the regular season and continued that momentum with these two victories.
Virginia track and field sent four individual competitors and a pair of relay teams to compete in the NCAA Indoor Championships in Boston, Mass. over the weekend. Their efforts saw both great disappointment and incredible success, but what remained consistent was the grit with which all the Cavaliers competed.
Virginia and Towson wrestled in the rain for two tense quarters, locked together, battling back and forth. Then a different kind of storm manifested, as the No. 6 Cavaliers (5-1, 0-0 ACC) pounded in nine consecutive goals, cementing victory in an eventual 19-15 defeat of the Tigers (4-3, 0-0 CAA) Saturday at Johnny Unitas Stadium.
Following a series victory over Boston College and a Tuesday win against Longwood, Virginia softball traveled to Chapel Hill over the weekend for a three-game set against North Carolina. The Cavaliers (15-7, 3-3 ACC) shut out the Tar Heels (19-4, 2-1 ACC) Friday for a series-opening win and fourth consecutive victory overall, but dropped the series after falling in the final two games Sunday.

Flowers are blooming. Bees are buzzing. It seems that the world is alight with color, awakening from its three-month-long slumber and warming our skin and spirits alike. What better way to feel the warmth of the season than reading a whimsical story in the sunlight?
Recently, Charlottesville City Council has allocated funds towards transforming a few downtown properties into housing assistance for people without shelter. This allocation signals an important step towards a Housing First approach. In contrast with popular short-term assistance programs geared towards alleviating the effects of homelessness, a focus on housing — not shelter — first aims to provide lasting support so participants can focus on gaining work and eventual self-sufficiency. Ultimately, however, the property acquisition is but a single step in what must be a sustained effort on the part of the Council to respond to the homelessness epidemic with sustainable, long-term initiatives. Housing First approaches promote this sort of long-term housing solution and, in the process, engender fiscally responsible welfare programs.
By April 1, the University will release decisions for the remaining class of 2028 applicants. For Yale, Dartmouth, Brown and a growing number of other universities across the country, this admissions process marks the final cycle before returning to standardized testing requirements. One year ago, the 134th Editorial Board urged the University to maintain their no-testing policy indefinitely — citing both the test’s problematic origins and its ineffectiveness at evaluating prospective students. While we do share the concerns voiced by the previous Editorial Board, our current moment is different. We now believe that standardized testing has a place in the future of college admissions, provided it is considered within the larger context of an applicant’s abilities and circumstances.
For years on end, graduate student workers at the University have long protested serious delays in the reception of their stipends. The United Campus Workers of Virginia, a local chapter of a union which represents higher education workers, regularly advocates for wage and stipend raises. But at our University, this union has not been able to advocate for raises because the more pressing problem is the all too-frequent absence of stipends. Stipend checks received weeks late and thousands of dollars short are particularly unacceptable for a university that regularly boasts about its financial accessibility. In this way, such systemic problems at the graduate level undermine the institution’s proclaimed support for diverse financial backgrounds. The University must restoratively respond to these failures, locating tangible solutions to a system that continues to mistreat and undervalue the graduate student community.
Virginia trounced Georgia Tech in the first half and never looked back behind an electric Senior Day crowd at John Paul Jones Arena Saturday. The Cavaliers (22-9, 13-7 ACC) entered the game on the bubble of making the NCAA Tournament, while the Yellow Jackets (14-17, 7-13 ACC) sought to continue a three-game winning streak. On senior night, senior guard Reece Beekman matched a career high with 21 points, receiving a standing ovation in the final minute as Coach Tony Bennett gave him a curtain call.
Virginia men’s basketball has had an uncharacteristically streaky season in 2023-24. The Cavaliers (22-9, 13-7 ACC) won nine of their first ten before dropping four of their next six. Then, to start off the academic semester, they won eight games in a row, then dropped four of seven, only to close out the regular season with a quality 72-57 win against Georgia Tech. The win against the Yellow Jackets clinched the No. 3 seed for Virginia in the ACC Tournament.
Virginia women’s lacrosse’s quick turnaround from a Wednesday win over No. 23 Richmond did not deter the No. 13 Cavaliers (7-1, 2-1 ACC) when they traveled to South Bend, Ind. to face Notre Dame Saturday afternoon. Virginia earned a gritty 12-10 victory against the No. 4 Fighting Irish (5-1, 1-2 ACC), and it took a strong all-around showing from the Cavaliers to add to the win column.
Earlier this semester, the Biden Administration announced that it wants to amend an Obama-era policy that established the inclusive access textbook program for students across the nation. This program gives college students automatic access to online versions of textbooks from the beginning of the semester and — here at the University — the cost of these textbooks are ultimately charged directly to students’ financial services accounts. The Biden administration’s proposed change would prevent students from being automatically opted into the inclusive access program at their universities, instead forcing them to opt in themselves. The Biden Administration argues that this shift in policy will give students more autonomy over what course materials they choose to purchase. However, in reality, making such a change will deal a blow to students by undoing the part of this policy which has played a fundamental role in driving down the cost of course materials.
Some of the best athletes to play for the University are homegrown talents from Charlottesville. Graduate attackman Connor Shellenberger of men’s lacrosse and freshman guard Kymora Johnson of women’s basketball instantly come to mind as leaders of their respective programs. Completing a trifecta of local legends, enter Henry Ford — who has been playing baseball in Charlottesville for over a decade.

Virginia women’s basketball watched its season come to a crashing conclusion in the ACC Tournament March 6. The Cavaliers led by 11 points over Wake Forest — holders of the No. 14 seed out of 15 and a 2-16 conference record — heading into the fourth quarter, only for Virginia to miss 14 of its first 15 field goal attempts en route to a shocking 58-55 defeat. However, despite a disastrous end to the year, the 2023-24 season should be viewed as a success for Coach Amaka Agugua-Hamilton and her Cavaliers.
