The same team winning three consecutive championships — widely considered a “three-peat” by American sports fans — has been the most difficult team accomplishment to achieve in sports this century.

Virginia basketball suffered its second straight home loss on a wild sequence of events, as freshman guard Matthew Cleveland hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer to give Florida State a dramatic 64-63 victory in Charlottesville. The Cavaliers (17-12, 11-8 ACC) led by as many as 11 in the second half, but a furious comeback by the Seminoles (15-13, 8-10 ACC) negated any opportunity for Virginia to bounce back from the loss against Duke on Wednesday. Senior forward Jayden Gardner led all scorers with 21 points, but his efforts simply were not enough to pull out the win in the Cavaliers’ last home game of the season.

Former Virginia men’s soccer stars Daryl Dike and Joe Bell made big European moves this transfer window during the month of January. Both were key players in the 2019 campaign that saw Virginia reach the final round of the NCAA Tournament.
The University carries an indisputable level of prestige. It possesses the status of a “public Ivy” and consistently ranks in the top five among public schools in the U.S., coming in fourth for three straight years. It also boasts top ranking graduate programs, earning U.Va. a respectable reputation in all regards. This reputation led me to hear that a degree from the University would take me anywhere I wanted in life long before I even started elementary school. Ever since, I have looked forward to being able to say the coveted line — “I have worn the honors of Honor. I graduated from Virginia.” I essentially placed the University on a fixed pedestal, as many of those around me had done and continue to do. So, when looking back at my experience as a fourth year student, it may seem surprising that I am actually disenchanted with the University. I feel let down and betrayed by a school I was taught to view as an infallible institution capable of making my dreams come true.

Through the first 10 games of the season, the Virginia men’s basketball team has had a shaky start to the season. After losing players like forward Sam Hauser, forward Jay Huff and guard Trey Murphy III, a new-look Cavalier team (6-4, 1-0 ACC) has had to come together for the 2021-2022 season.
The past year at the University has been an unusual one to say the least. At the beginning of the year, we were still living in a mainly virtual world — classes were online, gathering limits were imposed and we watched as new COVID-19 cases reached peak highs. As we returned to Grounds for the fall, we jumped immediately back to in-person life. After completely adjusting our academic lives, we were required to largely forget about Zoom and revert back to the life we had before the onset of the pandemic.
