Thus, with no game to preview, we here at Cavalier Daily Sports thought it would be fun to break down various position groups performance through the first six weeks of the year. So with that, members of this fine University, I have the high privilege and distinct honor of presenting to you the State of the Hoo-nion Address.

#GoACC Power Rankings: Week 7

By Zack Bartee | October 8, 2014

Awaiting the jackpot

By Daniel Weltz | October 6, 2014

Shine on

By Ryan Taylor | October 6, 2014

There is nothing quite like a nighttime football game. Anticipation has more time to build. More fans file into stadiums to be a part of the madness. And the players? Well, the stars shine brightest at night.

Cavaliers face Pittsburgh in ACC clash

By Grant Gossage | October 1, 2014

This Saturday evening, when the Virginia football team (3-2, 1-0 ACC) takes on Pittsburgh (3-2, 1-0 ACC), Scott Stadium will be the place to be. Following a third-quarter coast to victory over non-conference opponent Kent State, Virginia recognizes that a win Saturday versus an ACC coastal division foe would be an even bigger step in the right direction.

Senior outside hitter Tori Janowski tallied 34 kills in the Virginia wins, becoming the 16th player in program history to surpass 1,000 kills for her career.
