🔼 Midseason Measuring Stick. Virginia men’s basketball gets a great road test tonight, as it travels to take on a talented Memphis Tigers team.

Memphis is 8-2 on the season, has won three straight games and claims several Power 5 victories already this season against No. 13 Clemson, No. 21 Texas A&M, No. 20 Arkansas, Michigan and Missouri.

🔼 Hollins Honored. Monday brought another honor for Mike Hollins, as the Virginia running back was one of three winners of the 2023 Comeback Player of the Year Award.

Hollins shares the honor with Michigan running back Blake Corum and College of Holy Cross linebacker Jacob Dobbs.

🔼 For Old Glory. Virginia wrestling alum Jay Aiello is headed to the U.S. Olympic Trials!

Aiello was in Fort Worth, Texas over the weekend competing in USA Wrestling’s Senior Nationals, where he finished third at 97kg to qualify.
