Hoos Brew 4/13: The Next Domino

Today, we're looking at more records falling.

Good morning! “Today’s almost over. And weekdays always go by fast. Friday we’re leaving. It’s like two days really. It’s like a cup of coffee.” - Jerry Seinfeld, talking about waiting for the Blue-White Spring Game.

What else are we serving up in today's Brew?

🏈 Coordinators chat
⚾️ Another outburst
​⚔️ And much, much more!

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Two ‘Til Kickoff. We’re finding it harder to focus on anything other than the fact that Virginia football will be back on the field in just two days.

🔼 Another Outburst. Nine first inning runs left little doubt for Virginia baseball against Mount St. Mary’s, and the Hoos took the midweek contest 16-4.

Stop us if you’ve heard this before - Jake Gelof homered again for the Hoos. Gelof, Griff O’Ferrall, Casey Saucke, and Henry Godbout all had two RBI.

🔼 In Good Company. There was Mike Lindner. There was E.J. Anderson. At one time, both those men held the title of most prolific home run hitter in Virginia baseball history.

Not anymore, though. That title now belongs to Jake Gelof, as Jeff White writes.

The ACC Championships were last held at Sedgefield Country Club in 2021, when the Hoos finished fourth.

The format will consist of three rounds of stroke play to determine the four semifinalists, who then will compete in match play to determine a champion.

🔼 Honored Hoos. Eleven Virginia football players have earned NFF Hampshire Honor Society membership, as announced by the National Football Foundation & College Football Hall of Fame.

To earn membership a student-athlete must maintain a cumulative 3.2 GPA or better throughout his college career. The 11 members from Virginia are the most of any school in the ACC.

🤔 HOOS TRIVIA

Touch ‘Em All. Virginia softball’s Tori Gilbert hit her 32nd career home run on Tuesday against Liberty.

Where do those 32 round-trippers place her on UVA’s all-time list?
