Over the past month, Grounds hosted both of the major gubernatorial candidates — Youngkin-endorsed Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earlee-Sears and Democratic candidate, former Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger. Both politicians have won their party’s nomination and are ready to persuade voters that, come November, they are the best choice for the governorship. With both candidates making intentional stops to Grounds, voters are reminded that it is time to look towards the future of Virginia, outside of Youngkin and his influence on our University. This election will be unprecedented since no matter which way the election goes, someone will become the first female governor of this state.

April 30, the teachers and parents of Charlottesville celebrated — Charlottesville City Schools had been awarded the 14 acre FEI campus. The acquisition was a once-in-a-generation opportunity. It would have saved CCS tens of millions of dollars on capital projects, created a unified and expanded pre-k center and opened opportunities for additional student services.

Virginia’s regular season was packed with highs and lows. The Cavaliers (38-19, 14-10 ACC) entered, exited, re-entered and re-exited the Top 25 on numerous occasions, took down ranked powerhouses and dropped games to mediocre opponents.

With a dead-even series at Virginia Tech and everything to play for as far as postseason placement is concerned, Saturday’s Commonwealth Clash finale was a big one for Virginia. Pressure was evident, and the Cavaliers (32-17, 16-11 ACC) needed a hero. One arrived — freshman left-handed pitcher Tomas Valincius. He powered Virginia to a 3-1 victory, with the Hokies (30-24, 12-18 ACC) unable to get anything going in what ended up an unassailable pitching effort from Virginia.

In a match that felt like the swinging back and forth of a pendulum, one that came down to the final set on the final court, No. 7 seed Virginia men’s tennis saw its season end in heartbreak Friday, falling 4-3 to No. 2 seed TCU (26-3, 8-0 Big 12) in the quarterfinals of the NCAA Championship at the Hurd Tennis Center in Waco, Texas.

In a late-inning explosion to conclude game one of Virginia’s final series against Virginia Tech Thursday, the Cavaliers stamped their authority — something that they have only recently resuscitated amidst what has been an excellent stretch to close out the regular season. However, from the outset of game two Friday, the Cavaliers (31-17, 15-11 ACC) appeared uninspired and despondent. The result was a 5-4 loss to the Hokies (30-23, 12-17 ACC) that ultimately felt more like an inverted variation of the previous night’s result.

With momentum in hand after a sweep of Miami last weekend, Virginia baseball went down the road to Blacksburg for their final series of the season against Virginia Tech. With NCAA Tournament hopes on the line for both teams, the Cavaliers (31-16, 15-10 ACC) used some late-game slugging and an incredible outing from senior pitcher Jay Woolfolk to power past the Hokies (29-23, 11-17 ACC) 12-2.

After changing the assignment system last spring, Housing and Residence Life is now using another new system for matching residence staff to housing. All residence advisors and senior residents serving in the 25-26 year for HRL used an individual, online choice platform through the University’s housing portal, which is also used for upperclassmen housing selections. The only exception to this new process are RAs and SRs who will be living in any residential colleges, as they undergo a separate process.

Growing up in my hometown of Pittsburgh, Pa., I was blessed with an amazing group of girlfriends who supported me through all the good and bad. Before coming to college, I truly could not imagine going through any phase of my life without them. Much to my 17-year-old self’s surprise, however, I’ve since learned that I actually can go through new experiences on my own. While it was tough to accept, I now realize that it is impossible to hold on to every old friend whilst moving into new, separate chapters of my life. And guess what? That is perfectly okay.

The final breaths of the semester have come and gone. As many students temporarily place their belongings in local storage units and procrastinate unpacking those big, blue IKEA bags, some sentimental goodbyes for the summer seem a bit rushed. After nine months spent on Grounds, a number of University students are eager to return home to something — or better yet, someone.

Stepping up to the plate, junior infielder Jade Hylton took a deep breath, re-velcroed both batting gloves and tapped her hand against her helmet before getting into her stance. Standing in the batter's box, Syracuse junior pitcher Madison Knight threw a first-pitch rise ball. Hylton timed her swing perfectly, taking the ball for a ride. Gradually standing up, everyone waited to see if the ball would go out, and the second it did, they erupted in cheers. Home run history.
