As I sit here writing this column, my ears are still ringing from the Dave Matthews concert and my mind is still blown from Notre Dame's instant-classic comeback against Michigan State this weekend.
There would be no late-game dramatics this time around, as the No. 1 Virginia men's soccer team suffered their first lost of the season to North Carolina 2-1 Friday night in Raleigh. Despite a dominating second half by North Carolina, Virginia gave fans hope in the 83rd minute.
Duke fell 1-0 yesterday as the Virginia women's soccer team moved to 2-0 in the ACC. As the teams took the field, sophomore midfielder Jen Redmond ran over to hug Duke's No.

After getting their feet wet at the Lou Onesty Invitational in Charlottesville two weeks ago, the men's and women's cross country teams will have their first real test this weekend when they travel to Minneapolis for the Roy Girak Invitational.

This weekend the Virginia men's soccer team will face a challenge it hasn't faced in two weeks -- leaving the 2,000 fans of Klöckner Stadium to travel to North Carolina for this season's second away game.
Is it really Sept. 21? It feels like I?ve been back in Charlottesville for a week, not a month.
Last week's games were brutal. Just awful to pick and tough to watch. For a weekend that had such promise, the most memorable event ended up being the replay firestorm in Eugene, Ore. All that is a long way of saying that I fared poorly, although a 1-2-2 week won't force anyone to put up their tuition check this week to get back even.
Nico Colaluca scored two goals, including the game-winner in overtime, as No. 1 Virginia remained undefeated, vanquishing West Virginia 2-1. The Cavaliers (8-0-0) claimed their third overtime victory in a row to turn the No.
After a strong weekend, the No. 10 Cavaliers look to carry some momentum into tonight's game against William & Mary.
At the beginning of his spring football press conference, Al Groh said that the Virginia football team had a "significant rebuilding job" in front of it. Taking that statement as reliable, my first column in August argued that if the Cavaliers were in fact "rebuilding" in 2006, then Jameel Sewell should be the starting quarterback. His upside is tremendous.
Sept 18 -- The Virginia women's basketball team has named the 2006-2007 season's captains: senior guard Tara McKnight, senior center Siedah Williams and junior point guard Sharneé Zoll. Williams and Zoll are the Cavaliers' starting center and point guard, and were both captains during the 2005-2006 season.
After Saturday's game that featured all three Cavalier quarterbacks, Jameel Sewell is slated to start for Thursday's game against Georgia Tech entering practice this week. "I think we will probably start the week in the order in which we finished the game and see how it progresses from there," Virginia coach Al Groh said. That would put the order on the depth chart as Sewell, Christian Olsen, Kevin McCabe. Sewell, a redshirt freshman, played the entire second half against Western Michigan in the first appearance of his career.
The MLB season is winding down and the Virginia baseball team is in the midst of the offseason; however, the Virginia club baseball team is gearing up for an exciting fall season.
Virginia jumped to No. 1 in a recently released Soccer America poll.Virginia has not been this high up in the poll since 2002.
I hoped it would never come to this. Watching Western Michigan cel-ebrate on our V-sabre at midfield after pulling off the 17-10 upset Saturday left me with one of the worst tastes in my mouth following a Virginia football game. I can deal with the home losses to Florida State and Miami.
