This weekend the Cavalier cross country team will split up and hit the road for two different meets: the NCAA Pre-Nationals at Indiana State in Terre Haute, Ind. and the Tribe Open at the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Va.. The Pre-Nationals meet is by far the more crucial of the two and Virginia's leading runners will be there. The Cavaliers will be competing in the men's 8,000 meter Blue Race, which is the first race of the day at 11 a.m., and the women's 6,000 meter Blue Race, which will begin at 12:20 p.m. The Tribe Open gives the team's younger runners a chance to gain valuable experience in a low-pressure setting.

Before Saturday, redshirt freshman quarterback Jameel Sewell was developing well after being inserted into the starting role in Virginia's third game. Unfortunately, he ran into a huge roadblock Saturday in Florida State. Under pressure all day from the Seminoles' defensive line, Sewell was sacked seven times. He could not evade the blitz as he did many times against North Carolina and N.C. State. For the game, he finished 17 of 32 for 125 yards and two interceptions. His usual mobility deserted him as well, as he posted negative 26 rushing yards.

When most true freshmen arrive on Virginia's football team, they typically expect to spend a year on the bench learning the ropes of the college game. Nate Collins is the exception. The nose tackle has performed ably in backup duty this year, playing in all eight of the Cavaliers' games so far. He has notched six solo tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, and one sack. But Collins did not expect to be such a significant part of the defense so early in his career.
