Cavs survive Tech test, 61-59

The No. 25 Virginia men's basketball team survived a frantic finish filled with miscues by both players and officials to snatch a 61-59 victory against Virginia Tech yesterday evening in Blacksburg.

Consecutive scores by Evans and senior guard Sammy Zeglinski with 7:32
