It’s seldom easy to win on the road in the ACC — especially not in a marathon matchup exceeding the two-and-a-half-hour mark. The Virginia women’s basketball team proved its resilience Thursday afternoon at Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum, surviving Wake Forest 109-103 to bounce back from a heartbreaking overtime loss just days earlier.
Three Cavaliers from both of Virginia’s squash squads competed in the CSA Individual Championships over the weekend, in New York, N.Y. — playing against the premier collegiate squash players from around the country.
Vivian Yang landed in Charlottesville for her official visit early in the summer, jet-lagged after some 21 hours of travel from Auckland, New Zealand. Final Exercises were in the University’s rearview mirror, and the streets and courts were quiet — only two-thirds of the coaching staff and none of her future teammates were there to greet her. She was quickly whisked away from the airport to see the Rotunda, taking in the sights on a warm summer evening.

Virginia men’s basketball authored one of the most dramatic comebacks in program history Tuesday night, erasing a 19-point deficit and outlasting a Notre Dame team that played its best basketball of the season. The game required two overtimes to determine a winner and tied the program’s largest comeback victory in its history.
On Jan. 12, Scott Beardsley was called to speak before the Education Subcommittee of the Virginia Senate Finance and Appropriations Committee, where he failed his first test as the University’s president. When asked why nine mentions of “diversity” vanished from his CV in 2025, he gave a non-answer — “Whatever my resume has on it now is what it says.” The University community would do well to take him at his word and closely examine his qualifications before falling in line.
While the University’s club scene prides itself on a variety of offerings, it can often feel dominated by exclusive pre-professional organizations flocked to by students looking for extra lines on their resume. Simply getting into these clubs may require a certain stilted image, stifling authenticity. HoosFits, a fashion-oriented club of student photographers, videographers and graphic designers that took shape in September 2024, encourages the opposite.The student group celebrates student fashion on Grounds, looking deeper into the unspoken expressions of individuality within one’s day-to-day outfit. They are most known for their Instagram slideshows that portray impeccably dressed students, showcasing a range of styles as a microcosm for the student body’s fashion. The handful featured on the page weekly are approached impromptu by the club’s photographers who pick out peers sporting experimental, thoroughly accessorized and carefully curated outfits.
The resignations of five Board of Visitors members and the subsequent appointment of 10 new members Jan. 17 by Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D) was characterized by several University student leaders as relieving. Some students also said the previous Board acted with malfeasance, and expressed their gratitude for Spanberger’s appointments which, according to the students, are more bipartisan in their political views than former members.
Virginia softball’s 2025 campaign ended with a loss to North Florida in the NCAA Regionals. Even with the season at its end, the losses did not cease — that final defeat marked the last time a number of program cornerstones would step up to the plate in the orange and blue.
Few artists have had a career trajectory as fascinating as Poppy’s. A decade ago, she was making surreal, viral YouTube videos and satirical pop songs under the persona of a sinister android. Today, she is one of the biggest names in modern metal with two Grammy nominations under her belt and a jam-packed schedule touring alongside industry giants like Avenged Sevenfold and Linkin Park. Her meteoric rise can be attributed to albums like “I Disagree” and, more recently, “Negative Spaces,” which released at the end of 2024 and established her as a powerhouse in the alternative music scene.

The Incident, Amuse Bouche and The Whethermen joined forces Friday in Warner Hall for their semesterly tradition — a free, three-group comedy show. Aptly titling the show “Good Things Come in Threes,” the three groups each brought their own unique humor to the performance over a hilarious evening.
Saturday brought a blizzard of “earlies” to Charlottesville. With a snowstorm bearing down, schedules shifted and start times accelerated. Both Virginia wrestling and the men's basketball team found themselves competing hours ahead of schedule. But for the wrestling team, that theme of earliness proved prophetic in the worst way. Against Stanford, the wrestler who struck first won every single bout, and the Cavaliers found themselves playing catch-up from the opening whistle in a 31-9 defeat.
If there is one obstacle the Cavaliers have yet to overcome this season, it is sustaining momentum. Coming off a 38-point home win against Pittsburgh on Thursday, Sunday presented a chance to build on that success and showcase the roster’s talent.

Each January, hordes of college women adorned in their nicest outfits and warmest puffer jackets fill Rugby Road, Chancellor Street and surrounding areas for sorority rush. From visiting 13 different houses to making tough choices each round, the University’s sorority recruitment process can be a stressful path to sisterhood. Thankfully, each of this year’s 1,100 rushees had someone in their corner while they searched for their home in the Greek life community.
