Baseball remains undefeated in non-conference play In a midweek doubleheader against Stony Brook Tuesday, Virginia maintained its undefeated record in its non-conference schedule and remained unblemished at home, winning the early game 3-0 and roaring back from a 3-run deficit in the eighth inning to take the latter game 6-4. In game two, the Cavaliers (16-4, 2-4 ACC) were faced with something they had not yet encountered against a non-conference foe this season: a deficit in the last half of the game.

They're about as different as night and day, fire and water, chalk and cheese, Mario and Luigi and, well, Charlottesville and Blacksburg. Virginia coach Dave Leitao and Virginia Tech coach Seth Greenberg, both talented bench generals, have done pretty well for themselves over the past few years.
