After a dynamic 6-1 victory in the series opener, Virginia looked to continue to build on its four-game winning streak in a crucial matchup against Miami Saturday afternoon. Despite falling behind early to the Hurricanes (30-20, 14-11 ACC), the Cavaliers (29-16, 13-10 ACC) relied on clutch offensive performances and an excellent bullpen effort to battle back to a 10-9 victory.
The No. 7 Virginia women’s tennis team saw its promising season come to a disappointing end Friday afternoon in a 4-0 loss to No. 10 Tennessee in the NCAA Championship Round of 16. At the Boar’s Head Resort in Charlottesville, in a rematch of a February meeting at ITA Indoors that Virginia won 4-2, the No. 10 Lady Vols turned the tables with a dominant performance to advance to the quarterfinals.
I used to think in black and white. I had strong opinions, a clear sense of what is right and the stubborn belief that my side was the correct side. Now, as I am getting ready to graduate, I am less sure of what I think. I am more reluctant to play the arbiter of good and bad. And I take pride in my ability to understand perspectives on many sides of an issue. This growth — or devolution, depending on who you ask — is, in part, due to my time with The Cavalier Daily.
Following a more than two week hiatus from play, Virginia women’s lacrosse was back in action Friday afternoon, as the Cavaliers (12-6, 5-4 ACC) began their quest for national glory at Klöckner Stadium with a dominant 20-6 victory over LIU. Virginia left no room for doubt in its NCAA Tournament opener, swiftly dispatching the Sharks (12-7, 8-1 NEC) with superior play on both ends of the field.
Following an electric three-game winning streak in midweek games across the last fortnight, the Cavaliers looked to continue their late-season resurgence in their return to conference play Friday night against Miami. Virginia (28-16, 12-10 ACC), which entered the matchup in Baseball America’s “Next Four Out” designation for the upcoming NCAA Tournament, was in dire need of a victory.
The U.S. Department of Education reversed course, passing off the now-shuttered Federal Executive Institute to the University Friday. The Department previously awarded the institute to Charlottesville City Schools.
Despite winning in the first round over No. 10 seed Louisville, No. 25 Virginia fell to No. 15 Clemson 7-4 in a quarterfinal matchup. The 7-seed Cavaliers (37-16, 14-10 ACC) endured the same result as last season’s matchup with the Tigers (42-12, 19-5 ACC), who earned the 2-seed, but Virginia’s lower seed gave it the opportunity to win its first ACC Championship game since 2011, a 3-2 walk-off win over the Cardinals (26-25, 9-15 ACC).
Pope Francis, who served as the 266th head of the Catholic Church and leader of over 1.4 billion Catholics around the world from 2013 to 2025, died April 21. At the University, students shared a range of perspectives on his legacy which is marked by institutional reform, inclusivity and a relentless focus on the poor.
In 2014, the University renewed its contract with Aramark — a for-profit company that supplies food and provides other services in various fields, including education, healthcare and government — for an additional 20 years, set to end in 2034. This renewal came after the company had already partnered with U.Va. Dine for over 20 years prior.
Virginia faced some tough competition this week at its home regional — other programs competing in the Charlottesville Regional included No. 4 South Carolina, No. 16 Ole Miss, No. 21 Florida and No. 27 UCLA. However, with the benefit of playing its home Birdwood Golf Course, as well as being the second seed in the region, the Cavaliers always looked likely to finish in the top five and qualify for the NCAA Championships.
After a six-day hiatus for exams, Virginia baseball returned to the friendly confines of Disharoon Park for a Wednesday evening clash against Towson. It was business as usual for the Cavaliers (27-16, 11-10 ACC), as they picked up a seventh win over their past eight games. Virginia put up double-digit runs on the scoreboard for the 16th time in 2025, as the Cavaliers incinerated the Tigers (19-31, 9-12 Colonial Athletic Association) 19-1.
Parting is such sweet sorrow. It is difficult to leave behind what you have come to know so well. But not in this case — I cannot wait to graduate! When I committed to the University of Virginia four long years ago, my loving family so kindly filled my head with fantasies of what college could be like — you will fit right in and make so many friends, this will be the best time of your life. For much of my college experience genuine friendships eluded me and I struggled to find the connections and community I had come to expect as I trekked across the country for college. It has taken nearly my entire collegiate career for me to realize that every experience is different and my time at the University can not be measured only in under-fulfilled expectations.
Junior Måns Dahlberg always plays his best tennis later in the year. That has been a pattern since he arrived at Virginia — he has slow starts to the season through January, February and March but puts it all together in April and May.
“What have you been doing this summer?” If this is a question you have heard from friends, family and even acquaintances over the last month since finals ended, you are not alone. For many, the unspoken subtext to this question has been an inquiry into whether you are engaging in work experience over the summer. And, equally for many, this question will elicit feelings of dejection, having been unsuccessful in the internship application process of what is an increasingly competitive environment. In order to ameliorate both this feeling of unhappiness from failing to attain work experience and the competitive application process that catalyzes it, the University should look to improve its career resources. And we, as students, should look to amending our at times narrow mindframes which categorize internships as the only worthwhile summer experience.

In the four years before the Class of 2025 stepped on Grounds, Virginia’s big sports were dominant. Football had three winning or .500 seasons, men’s basketball had won the 2019 national title and men’s lacrosse had won two national titles. But since then, football has had just one winning season, men’s basketball has missed the NCAA Tournament twice and men’s lacrosse has come up ringless.

Mother’s Day is a wonderful way to not only show appreciation to mother figures around the world and recognize their impactful role throughout various lives, but also to explore how mothers are portrayed across literature.
