Despite a strong defensive performance, the Cavalier field hockey team was unable to hold off a charging Demon Deacon squad, falling in the first round of the ACC tournament Thursday, 5-1.
Virginia goalkeeper Logan Carr put forth a solid defensive effort between the posts, collecting 11 saves and holding the Deacons to only one marker in the first half.
