If there's one thing I have noticed throughout my first three years at Virginia, it's that we like to get things done well in advance.

No. 5 Tar Heels charge into Charlottesville

By Paul Montana | February 12, 2008

By Paul Montana Cavalier Daily Senior Associate Editor Few predicted in November that Virginia men's basketball would be where it is at this point in the season. At 1-8 in the ACC and 11-11 overall, Virginia sits firmly in last in the ACC, and with its most recent loss Saturday to Wake Forest, joined Georgia Tech as one of two teams to fall to a .500 overall record. Before the season started, Virginia was picked by the ACC media to finish fifth and by ESPN.com to finish ninth in the conference.

Cavs rebound from Maryland loss to smash Seminoles

By Sean Bielawski | February 11, 2008

The Virginia women's basketball team earned a split of its two games over the weekend, defeating Florida State 77-54 at John Paul Jones Arena Sunday following an 86-80 loss to Maryland Friday. Sunday's victory for the Cavaliers (18-6, 6-2 ACC) came fewer than 48 hours after their emotional loss at Maryland (25-2, 9-1 ACC). Virginia led the fourth-ranked Terrapins 59-51 with 11:25 to play but faltered down the stretch, as the Cavaliers suffered their second straight loss to the Terrapins.

Wake Forest hands Virginia eighth conference defeat

By Paul Montana | February 11, 2008

After suffering a 31-point blowout to Clemson Thursday, the Virginia men's basketball team's sluggish play continued in the opening minutes against Wake Forest Saturday, as the Demon Deacons dominated early and never gave up the lead, handing the Cavaliers an 80-64 loss. Though Virginia (11-11, 1-8 ACC) would recover from a 36-27 halftime deficit to cut the lead to as few as 3?

It can, and will, get worse

By Paul Montana | February 11, 2008

Anyone else tired of sighing, shaking your head and asking how can they be so lousy? Saturday's loss to Wake Forest was as defining a game for this Virginia team as any game this season.

By Cavalier Daily Staff | February 11, 2008

The Virginia men's and women's indoor track and field teams had a productive trip to New York City this weekend, as 14 Cavaliers placed seventh or better in their respective events at the Armory Collegiate Invitational. Notable performances came from senior Kara Scanlin, who won the women's 3000-meter with a personal best time of 9:44.85, and senior Billie Jo Grant, who won the shot put event while setting a new Virginia women's indoor track and field shot put record with a 16.14-meter toss.

Cavs drop another to Clemson

By Paul Montana | February 8, 2008

The Cavaliers' nightmarish season thus far just went from bad to worse. From the time Virginia lost its 6-2 lead early in the first half to visiting Clemson, the Cavaliers showed no signs of life as the Tigers earned their largest margin of victory ever in an ACC road game, defeating Virginia 82-51. Whether it was in the paint, on the perimeter or anywhere in between, the Cavaliers had no answer for Clemson's offense all night.

That's what he said

It finally happened. After losing game after game by the smallest of margins, the Cavaliers finally broke. In most of Virginia's losses, there have been bright spots.
