📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Let’s Talk Football. Virginia football head coach Tony Elliott spoke with the media yesterday following the first day of spring practice!

🔼 Consistent Offense. No. 14 Virginia baseball scored multiple runs in the third, fourth, fifth and sixth innings on Tuesday against Georgetown, winning 15-6 to move to 17-4 on the season.

Casey Saucke once again had a big day at the plate, going 3-for-4 with three runs scored. Henry Godbout was 2-for-4 with two runs scored and three driven in.

🔼 Nothing Allowed. An RBI each from Kelsey Hackett and Abby Weaver was more than enough for Virginia softball on Tuesday, as Eden Bigham kept Rutgers quiet in a 2-0 win for the Hoos.

Courtney Layne threw the first two scoreless innings for the Cavaliers, before turning things over to Bigham for the final five innings.

🔼 History Made. Virginia’s Connor Shellenberger scored his second point against Albany in the third quarter on Tuesday, and with it, became the program’s all-time leading scorer in the Hoos’ 16-10 win.

Shellenberger, who now has 282 points, passed former teammate Matt Moore, who set the previous record in 2022.

🔼 Not Enough. No. 10 seed Virginia men’s basketball fell in a First Four matchup on Tuesday to No. 10 seed Colorado State, 67-42.

Reece Beekman led the Hoos with 15 points and four assists.

🔼 Put Your Dukes Up. No. 9 Virginia women’s lacrosse plays its second top-10 opponent of the season today, hosting No. 6 James Madison at 5 p.m.

The Dukes are 7-1 this season, its one loss at then-No. 9 Maryland back on March 10.

🔼 Let’s Make It Four. The top-ranked Virginia women’s swimming and diving team begins competition today at the 2024 NCAA Championships in Athens, Ga., looking to win its fourth consecutive NCAA title.

Things get underway today at 6 p.m. with the 200 medley relay and 800 freestyle relay.

🔼 From Penn To Grounds. What led defensive back Kendren Smith to Virginia after spending five seasons at Penn?

We’ll let him explain!
