The No. 20 Cavaliers were unable to turn a strong defensive performance into a win against the Demon Deacons Saturday.
Virginia goalkeeper Katherine Blair made 15 saves -- 11 in the second half -- as the Cavaliers held Wake Forest to only one goal. The Demon Deacons' average is 3.35 goals per game.

With the win the Demon Deacons maintain their undefeated record, moving to 16-0 as the Cavaliers fell to 8-8.
