Virginia volleyball is in the midst of a 25-year drought in which it has not appeared in an NCAA Tournament.
Every game of the Ryan Odom era so far has started with graduate point guard Dallin Hall on the court — and that, so far, has been the correct decision. Hall’s leadership, experience and poise are too important to forego for a roster this green. But the Cavaliers also have a freshman who isn’t interested in waiting politely in the background.
After a disappointing night in Ann Arbor, Mich., Virginia headed to Bloomsburg looking to respond to their lackluster performance, and they did so in dramatic fashion.
Victory was clearly contagious for Virginia Saturday. For volleyball, the Cavaliers (13-17, 6-14 ACC) closed out their season by avenging a loss to Boston College on the road after previously falling to the Eagles (16-16, 5-15 ACC) last month. This time around, Virginia won three consecutive sets after dropping the first to win 25-27, 25-23, 25-16 and 25-21.
In early April, the Cavalier Food Pantry ventured into a new era of service on Grounds, marked by a move to the Student Health and Wellness building and an endowment from the University’s Basic Needs Support Fund. SHW became the pantry’s primary location at the start of this semester, while the original Newcomb Hall location continues to operate as a satellite space, offering shelf-stable and reapportioned items.
Junior linebacker Maddox Marcellus was not going to be a starter entering this season. Marcellus himself was well aware of this.
It is hard to find a game that meant more to Virginia football than this year’s showdown with Virginia Tech — the Cavaliers (10-2, 7-1) decimated the Hokies (3-9, 2-6 ACC) 27-7 Saturday night, clinching their first trip to the ACC Championship game since 2019.
For years, Virginia has been in desperate need of a governor who will do more than make speeches and empty promises about fixing the state’s education system. With Gov.-elect Abigail Spanberger’s victory Nov. 4, it seems that there is hope of finally approaching the end of a long and exhausting educational decline — supporting teachers, boosting resources and modernizing assessments. But hope alone does not fix schools. For Spanberger to successfully reshape education in Virginia and establish herself as a results-driven governor, she must translate her campaign commitments on education policy into concrete action, resisting the ongoing politicization of childhood education.
What the pick and shovel industry was to the California gold rush, data centers are to the artificial intelligence boom. Investment in data centers and their ancillary industries has accounted for the vast majority of United States’ GDP growth during the first half of 2025, with much of this investment heavily concentrated in Virginia. Although the majority of the 667 data centers that have been constructed in the state reside in Northern Virginia, multiple surrounding counties in Virginia including Fluvanna, Louisa and Culpeper counties have begun to consider regulations surrounding data centers embracing or rejecting them.
It has been almost an entire semester since Interim University President Paul Mahoney assumed the top role of University leadership. Mahoney was placed in this role as a temporary replacement for a beloved former University president and as a caretaker of a broken University community. This environment of controversy put Mahoney in an unenviable position from the outset, situated in a quagmire of an overzealous government, a controversial Board of Visitors and an underserved and rightfully distrustful University community.
Virginia took the two-hour drive home from the Greenbrier Tip-Off having split results against its first two high-major opponents of the year. With another pair of high-level adversaries looking on the horizon, the Black Friday matchup against Queens was an opportunity to correct course against a team that only earned Division I status this July.
At this time last year, Virginia football stared down a potentially catastrophic end to an already derailed regular season. What had begun as a promising start for Coach Tony Elliott and company had quickly gone sour, with Virginia dropping all but one of the previous six games before the visit to Virginia Tech. And even though Virginia, at 5-6, was playing for bowl eligibility, that chilly night at Lane Stadium quickly turned into a disaster.
David Leblang, Director of Policy Studies at the Miller Center, analyzes how the Center has remained a nonpartisan institution during a particularly divisive time in politics. He delves into the various programs, events and policy proposals associated with the Center, and how they are making an impact at UVA and beyond.
Student Council representatives convened Tuesday for their general body meeting via Zoom to discuss the expansion of student influence in University governance by granting voting power to the existing student representative on the Board of Visitors, who currently serves in a non-voting capacity. Additionally, representatives delivered updates on Plan B accessibility, the addition of a new dental insurance pilot program and reviewed concerns related to graduate student representation and the ongoing planning for the addition of a Music minor.
The U.Va. Speaking Center returned this fall, offering its services to University students who want to improve their public speaking ability. Though the Center is independent of the University, students now have the ability to leverage its services alongside an array of other career and academic preparation tools, including the Writing Center.
In a pre-Thanksgiving showdown, Virginia headed to the Aquatic Fitness Center to play its final home match of the season against No. 19 North Carolina. What the Cavaliers (12-17, 5-14 ACC) hoped would be an early holiday treat quickly turned into a holiday letdown as they lost to the Tar Heels (21-7, 14-5 ACC) in straight sets, 25-17, 28-26, 25-19.

The smell of roasted herbs swirls through the dining table, surrounding paper plates stuffed with a delicious array of spiced turkey, creamy mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce and stuffing.

After Virginia built some momentum in the form of a three-game win streak, it faced off against its first Power Four opponent of the 2025-26 season — Nebraska. The game was a litmus test for Coach Amaka Agugua Hamilton’s Cavaliers (5-2, 0-0 ACC), and the result was a 91-82 defeat at the hands of the Cornhuskers (7-0, 0-0 Big Ten).
