🔼 Brick-By-Brick. The Virginia Athletics Foundation (VAF) announced Tuesday the launch of a commemorative brick campaign in support of Virginia Athletics. 

The brick campaign will give Virginia fans and alumni the opportunity to cement their own legacy by purchasing a customized brick to be placed at John Paul Jones Arena. The bricks will be laid in the plaza outside the arena’s main entrance, giving donors the chance to decorate one of college basketball’s most iconic venues.

🔼 Resilient Group. Its record is perfect, but the University of Virginia men’s basketball team has been far from flawless in its two games this season: wins over Campbell and Coppin State at John Paul Jones Arena.

That’s not cause for panic. Growing pains were inevitable for a program with six newcomers and an interim head coach who’s been in that role for less than four weeks.

“Big picture, I would say we’ve been resilient,” said one of those newcomers, forward Elijah Saunders, a transfer from San Diego State. “We’ve been through a lot in this past month.”

🔼 Totally Rad. Virginia women’s basketball is back inside John Paul Jones Arena today after traveling to Oklahoma last weekend, hosting Radford at 7 p.m.

The Highlanders are 1-2 so far this season, with losses to Duke and Western Carolina and a win against Hampton.

🔼 First Frosh. Virginia volleyball’s Becca Wight has been named the ACC Freshman of the Week!

Wight was instrumental in the Hoos’ two wins over Virginia Tech this past week, collecting 21 kills between the two matches and five total blocks.
