Though Virginia only scored one goal, that was enough to defeat the Tigers (12-6-1, 6-3-1 ACC) thanks to the defensive performance by fifth-year goalkeeper Laurel Ivory and the Cavaliers’ solid back line.

Many Cavalier fans remember the crushing March Madness loss to No. 13 Ohio last season, yet a blank slate awaits as Coach Tony Bennett and company welcome the Navy Midshipmen Tuesday in the first contest of the year.

After a solid 2020-2021 season with the ever-reliable Coach Tony Bennett at the helm, a flood of names both exited and entered the Virginia men’s basketball program.

With the basketball season right around the corner, let’s take a look at the revamped Virginia men’s basketball roster.

Virginia got its third win of the season Tuesday night — a 3-1 victory against VCU. For most years this would be just business as usual, with another non-conference win to add to the books. The thing is, it took Virginia nine games to get that third win, and right now the team sits at 3-6-1 after a frustrating loss to Notre Dame on Oct.1. To add insult to injury, Virginia is winless in the ACC this season and hasn’t won an extra time match since March against Notre Dame.

What many may not know is that the Cavaliers also bridge international waters — most recently, in the Olympics.
