The Virginia softball team swept in-state rival Virginia Tech this weekend, leaving the Cavaliers (18-13, 5-0 ACC) undefeated in ACC play and with its first series win against the Hokies (13-20, 2-4 ACC) since 2005. Freshman pitcher Melanie Mitchell greatly contributed to Virginia's success, as she took the circle and the win in each stage of the three-game set.

"There were definitely some points during that match, even in the singles, where it looked like it could of turned the other way," sophomore Emily Fraser said.

Chi-Town letdown

By Matt Welsh | March 25, 2010

Riddle me this, in-state students: Has the hometown sports scene ever held this much promise? Virginia bracketologists understandably are bummed about a 'Hoo-less March Madness, but as the spring sports season begins in earnest, Cavalier fans have plenty of reason for optimism.

Frustrating. There's a rule that we follow at my house, and I'm not sure if it's something we made up or if it's a University-wide - or nation-wide or worldwide - tradition.
