🔼 Super Support. A festive crowd of 5,203 flocked to John Paul Jones Arena for a women’s basketball matinee Sunday, and among those cheering on the home team was University of Virginia alumnus Alexis Ohanian. Sitting courtside in a UVA jersey, the Reddit co-founder savored the atmosphere as his alma mater battled No. 14 Duke in an ACC game.
“You’re feeling the energy. Loud, excited arena,” Ohanian said at a postgame media gathering on the court at JPJ.

The No. 2 ranking is Virginia’s highest preseason ranking from D1Baseball since the publication started in 2015. The last time that D1Baseball had the Cavaliers in the preseason Top 5 was in 2015 when the publication placed UVA No. 3.
