To date, Virginia’s performance in the 2025 season has not met the expectations that being ranked No. 2 in the preseason brought. The team has been wildly inconsistent, and has spent the last several weeks unranked. The question then becomes, who are the real Cavaliers? Is this team the one that had hopes of a third straight College World Series or the team that fails to maintain a streak of success?
The ACC Championships will go down as a tournament filled with emotional highs and dramatic lows for No. 5 seed Virginia. The Cavaliers (20-7, 9-4 ACC) weathered their second-round and quarterfinal matches and then knocked off No. 1 Wake Forest, ending the nation’s best team’s 34-match unbeaten streak. But their run ended in the championship match, against No. 3 seed Stanford, with a tight match suddenly flipping away from Virginia.
As the end of my fourth year comes into clear view, it is time to reflect on all the things that made my fourth year at the University special. It is a year that I will remember as both very transformative yet very bittersweet — the perfect exclamation point to round out my time at the University.
The No. 7 Virginia women’s tennis team came into Sunday’s ACC Championship final with confidence, propelled by momentum from a strong semifinal win over No. 4 Duke and having already beaten No. 8 North Carolina twice this season. But in the biggest match of the year so far, the fourth-seeded Cavaliers (20-5, 10-2 ACC) could not replicate that magic, falling 4-0 to the second-seeded Tar Heels (23-4, 11-1 ACC) in a rematch of last year’s final at Cary Tennis Park in Cary, N.C.
With a spot in the ACC final on the line, No. 4 seed Virginia women’s tennis delivered a composed performance to take down No. 1 seed Duke 4-2 in the semifinals of the ACC Championship Saturday morning at Cary Tennis Park in Cary, N.C.
Virginia men’s lacrosse welcomed Lafayette to Charlottesville for each team’s final out-of-conference game of the season Saturday. The Cavaliers (6-7, 0-3 ACC) entered the contest reeling, on a three-game losing streak, while the Leopards (8-5, 4-3 Patriot League) were fresh off their biggest win of the season over No. 15 Boston University. However, Virginia was able to finally halt its tumble with a 13-8 win.
Despite dropping an extra-innings thriller Thursday, No. 25 Virginia bounced back Friday and Saturday in back-to-back ACC victories. The Cavaliers (33-14, 13-8) won the final pair of games in the home series against the Cardinals (23-20, 6-12), and both were not close — they won 8-2 Friday and 6-0 Saturday. Solid performances by seniors permeated the final two games, but it was junior infielder Jade Hylton’s record-tying home run that defined the series.
It was a beautiful afternoon for the first game of No. 25 Virginia’s last ACC home series versus facing Louisville. Sophomore pitcher Julia Cuozzo started for the home team, carrying with her an impressive 5-1 record, while the Cardinals (23-18, 6-10) overall have allowed the highest batting average in the conference — making the matchup an enticing one for the Cavaliers (31-14, 11-8 ACC). Despite a strong effort, they fell just short.
