Small step for Cavs, giant leap for Diane

While Virginia's 72-57 victory over Northwestern Wednesday night should not send Virginia fans running to buy tickets for the Final Four, it was just the type of victory that a rebuilding program such as Virginia needs in order to maintain momentum on the long road to excellence.

Zoll, Cavaliers keep ball under control in paradise

Despite falling to Minnesota in the final minute of the championship game of the Paradise Jam Saturday, the women's basketball season has soared out of the gate. The team competed in the annual tournament in the Virgin Islands during Thanksgiving Break, compiling a 1-1 record while there.

Injuries -- the real football scapegoat

Tony Bennett left his heart in San Francisco.

Mediocre November play hampers Virginia

The month of November is when a college football team looks within and reveals its true colors. Thanksgiving time marks the end of a long season for the fans and an even longer one for the players and coaches -- what seemingly starts in August really begins in January if you pay attention to the action behind the scenes. Off-season weights and conditioning, rehabbing from injuries, staying fresh with spring practice and learning the playbook for the upcoming season are all things that do not make the front page between the New Year and the dog days of summer.
