🔼 Four More. We’ve got four more days. That’s like a blink. That’s like you get lost in your phone for a few minutes, you look up, and it’s here. Four days!

🔼 Feelin’ 22. Virginia baseball hosts Richmond tonight, hoping to extend its record home win streak to 22 games.

The Hoos are coming off a series sweep of No. 20 Miami, in which they outscored the Hurricanes 24-8. Richmond comes to Charlottesville with a 14-18 record, having taken two-of-three from George Washington over the weekend.

🔼 Second Spot. Virginia men’s golf sits in second place after day one of the Lewis Chitengwa Memorial at 18-under par. The Hoos shot 272 in Monday’s first round, and followed it up with a 278 in round two.

Pietro Bovari leads Virginia at 6-under through two rounds. Chris Fosdick and Ben James both sit at 5-under heading into the tournament’s final round, set to be played Tuesday.

Lewis Chitengwa was a two-time All-American at Virginia (1995, 1996) and turned pro in 1998. At the age of 26, he passed away as a result of meningitis. In 2015, he was recognized for his immense contribution to golf by being inducted into the Mercedes-Benz African Golf Hall of Fame.

🔼 Fire Fighters. Virginia softball has a chance to get back on track tonight as it hosts Liberty for a midweek matchup.

The Hoos are coming off a close series against Virginia Tech in the Smithfield Commonwealth Clash, taking one game from the Hokies and falling in extras in another. Liberty comes into the game at 25-13 and is riding a seven-game win streak.

🔼 Back At The Dish. Nick Parker was back on the mound this weekend, 15 days after a line drive struck him in the right cheekbone and left him lying momentarily motionless on the field.

His desire to get back on the mound so quickly speaks to his competitive spirit and his toughness.

🤔 HOOS TRIVIA

Long Ball. Jake Gelof hit two home runs on Sunday, tying him for the all-time Virginia home run record with E.J. Anderson at 37 round-trippers.

Gelof was tied with two other Hoos at 35 career home runs heading into the game - can you name them?
