Cavaliers face Pittsburgh in ACC clash

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.

The story of Tori

Senior outside hitter Tori Janowski has a chance to leave the University one of the school’s best volleyball players in the past decade — but her aim isn’t to climb the ranks with impressive statistics. It’s to lead the Cavaliers to their first NCAA tournament appearance in over 10 years.

A week ago, I wrote that this Virginia team could shake things up in the ACC if the Cavaliers ever put a complete game together. On Saturday, they did just that.

Cavaliers look for improvement against visiting Kent State

Coming off a tough loss against No. 21 BYU last Saturday in Provo, Utah, the Virginia football team will return home this week to face a slightly less daunting Kent State team. Though the Golden Flashes (0-3, 0-1 MAC) are winless on the season and coming off a 66-0 drubbing by Ohio State, the Cavaliers know better than to overlook this MAC team.

Merely days after moving up to No. 2 and earning a first place vote in the polls, the Virginia men’s soccer team was dealt their second loss of the season Wednesday night.The Wildcats came out strong, but it was the Cavaliers that led at halftime.
