Cavaliers to take field against Tar Heels

By J.D. Moss | March 29, 2002

The unique thing about the college baseball season is the very quick turnarounds between games. The Virginia men's baseball team will experience this aspect of the game firsthand this weekend. Two days after falling to a surging VCU team, the Cavaliers (15-10, 4-2 ACC) will have to turn right back around and host the red-hot North Carolina Tar Heels (17-8, 6-0), who have won 11 straight and sit atop the ACC.

Cavaliers lose late to in-state rival VCU

By J.D. Moss | March 28, 2002

RICHMOND, Va. - It was deja vu. Exactly one month before, on Feb. 27, a visiting Virginia Commonwealth University baseball team used a five-run fifth inning to break open a close game and beat Virginia, 13-7. Yesterday, VCU (17-10) used a five-run sixth inning to snap a 1-1 tie and secure a 6-1 victory over the visiting Cavaliers at The Diamond. Trying to extend a three-game winning streak after sweeping Duke last weekend, Virginia (15-10) opened the game's scoring in the top of the fourth inning.

By Kathleen Thornton | March 27, 2002
