Cavaliers look to overcome point deficit

By Megan McDonald | February 21, 2007

Nine and 91: On the bus down to Chapel Hill for the ACC Championship meet, these are the numbers that will occupy the thoughts of the Virginia men's swimming and diving team: nine being the number of consecutive titles the Cavaliers will hold if they win this weekend, and 91 being the point deficit they will have to surmount before they can claim that honor. "This is the single greatest deficit ever faced at the completion of diving in the history of ACC swimming and diving," coach Mark Bernardino said.

The emergence of J.R. Reynolds

By Joey Mancini | February 21, 2007

A few weeks ago, a friend of mine approached J.R. Reynolds at Jaberwoke and told him that she thought he was a "wuss." Reynolds had been struggling with leg cramps in consecutive games, most notably in possessions that gave the opposing team a four-on-five break in transition that led to a three pointer each time. "You should drink more Gatorade," she said.

Cavs down George Washington

By Eric Kolenich | February 19, 2007

With snow flurries falling late Sunday afternoon at Davenport Field, the Cavaliers secured their second victory of the weekend, an 11-1 dismissal of George Washington. It was the second straight day Virginia (4-1) put 11 runs on the scoreboard, defeating the Colonials 11-0 the day before. Sophomore shortstop Greg Miclat led the Virginia offense, going nine for 10 on the weekend, including a perfect five for five Sunday. "I'm seeing the ball well and hitting it to the right spots," Miclat said.

Cavs fall to FSU in nail-biter

By Ben Gibson | February 19, 2007

It appeared to be déjà vu all over again for the Virginia women's basketball team yesterday afternoon. Just like in their previous meeting, the Cavaliers led at the half only to be subject to a big Florida State run to open up the second half. Unlike their 16-point loss in Tallahassee, Virginia fought back but ultimately fell to the Seminoles 79-77. The game resembled a boxing match -- each time Virginia would hit a shot to take the lead, the Seminoles would respond with one of their own.
