In the NCAA Basketball Tournament — often referred to as March Madness — emotion is a part of the game. Recently, Virginia women’s basketball advanced to the Sweet Sixteen of their tournament, so University fans can cheer on the team as they continue their Cinderella run.
No. 1 Notre Dame (6-1, 0-1 ACC) walked into Klöckner Stadium Saturday as the premier team in the country, preparing to steamroll the weakest of their four ACC foes on their home field. An unranked Virginia team (6-4, 0-1 ACC) didn’t seem to notice.
This year, Cinderella wears orange and blue.
Delivering a statement win on home courts, No. 13 Virginia earned a hard-fought 4-2 win over No. 24 Duke Friday afternoon. In a dual that lasted well into its third hour, the Cavaliers (14-4, 7-0 ACC) weathered a late Blue Devils (11-5, 5-1 ACC) comeback, with graduate student Melodie Collard securing the win with a narrow third-set victory on Court 6.
Boston College was predicted to be the ACC bottom feeder, coming dead last in the preseason conference poll. Friday, the Eagles (19-8, 7-3 ACC) welcomed No. 9 Virginia to Chestnut Hill, Mass., while standing at an identical 6-3 conference record, riding a seven-game win streak. The Cavalier (21-6, 6-4) offense struggled for much of the game at the hands of senior left hander AJ Colarusso, eventually dropping the series opener 5-3. It was the first series opener lost by Virginia all so far this season.
For last year’s Virginia men’s lacrosse team, going 0-4 in the ACC was a fate they had not experienced since Coach Lars Tiffany’s first season in 2017. With the days of back-to-back NCAA Championships in 2019 and 2021 now far in the rearview, after four bumpy losses, Virginia (5-4, 0-0 ACC) looks to claw back into conference contention — starting with Notre Dame (6-0, 0-0 ACC).
It took six innings for Virginia to get on the board in a 2-1 victory against Liberty Wednesday — the opener to their conference series against Pitt was a different story.

A bomb threat that prompted evacuations at Edgar Shannon and Clemons Libraries March 13 marks the second hoax threat at the University this academic year, as similar false reports continue to affect campuses nationwide. The incident came just one day after a deadly shooting at Old Dominion University that heightened concerns about campus safety across Virginia.
Something is rotten in the state of the University Board of Elections. A Special Status Organization tasked with monitoring and tabulating student self-governance elections, UBE’s operational blunders and institutional defensiveness rears its head almost every year to the detriment of the student body. This semester, the crown jewel of inefficacy has been UBE’s handling of allegations following the Student Council presidential election — the labyrinthine combination of poorly worded UBE bylaws and serious allegations of bribery and electoral malpractice on behalf of the Inter-Fraternity Council. Now, forced into an institutional gridlock with a yet to be confirmed election, Student Council has indefinitely postponed the transition of its new Executive Board into office — yet another egregious ramification to student self-governance due to UBE’s inefficacy.
On paper, the Flames presented a much tougher challenge for the No. 18 Cavaliers in 2025, having ranked as high as 34th in RPI and even winning one of two matchups. The meeting tonight comes during a much different season — after a 2-1 victory Wednesday night, No. 18 Virginia (28-3, 6-2 ACC) is now only 10 wins away from matching its 2025 total with 18 games still to play. The Cavaliers are ranked 25th in RPI, while Liberty (14-16, 7-2 CUSA) slots in at a distant 63rd.

Representatives also passed a bylaw amendment addressing ethics enforcement procedures.
