🔼 Onto The Next. It was a dominant weekend for No. 11 Virginia women’s tennis at the ITA Kickoff, surrendering just one total team point against Texas Tech and Georgia Tech on its way to qualifying for the ITA National Team Indoor Championship!
The same can be said for the No. 3 Virginia men’s team, which cruised through matches with Northern Arizona and Florida Atlantic to qualify for its ITA National Team Indoor Championship.
🔼 Fast Times. Virginia track & field had a fantastic weekend at the Penn State National Open, running several fast times to rewrite the UVA record books!
Margot Appleton set the Virginia women’s mile record on Day 1, running 4:30.87, which is also the fourth-fastest time in the NCAA this season.
On Day 2, the women’s DMR broke a school record that it set last season, and Gary Martin set the Virginia men’s 3000-meter record.
🔼 Flexing Its Muscle. Virginia wrestling was just about as dominant as it could be over the weekend, surrendering just six total team points combined in wins over Duke and American.
The Hoos blanked ACC foe Duke, 45-0, on the road on Friday night, before traveling to American on Sunday and winning 36-6.
