The eighth edition of the Smithfield Commonwealth Clash — a year-long competition between Virginia and Virginia Tech that includes 24 matchups across 22 sports — was decided last weekend at the women’s golf ACC Championship as the Cavaliers shot 17 under the Hokies’ weekend finish of 873. Each school is awarded a point when they come out on top over their rival — some sports will face off twice during the season, meaning those games are worth 0.5 points each.
