🔼 Not One, Not Two... But SIX members of the Virginia men’s lacrosse team were named USILA All-Americans on Thursday, headlined by Connor Shellenberger being honored with the Lt. Col. JI Turnbull Outstanding Attackman award.

Shellenberger is the first player in school history to earn first-team status four times, and was joined in All-American status by Cole Kastner (second team), Chase Yager (second team), Payton Cormier (third team), Griffin Schutz (third team) and Ben Wayer (honorable mention).

🔼 Terrific Trio. Three members of the Virginia women’s lacrosse team were recognized as All-Americans by the IWLCA on Thursday — Morgan Schwab headlined the group as a second team member, while Maggie Bostain and Mackenzie Hoeg both landed on the third team.

🔼 Back For More. What does No. 4 seed Virginia baseball have ready for an encore after beating Georgia Tech 13-0 in its ACC Tournament opener?

The Hoos take on No. 5 seed Florida State today at 11 a.m. at Truist Field in Charlotte, looking to claim Pool D with a victory. The Seminoles also won their ACC Tournament opener versus Georgia Tech, 12-9.

🔼 Let’s Race. Virginia men’s track and field got competition started on Day 1 of the NCAA East Preliminaries with a pair of athletes punching tickets to the NCAA Championships and five others advancing to quarterfinal rounds.

Will Anthony qualified in the 10,000m with a time of 29:08.24, and John Fay qualified in the men’s hammer throw with a toss of 64.65m.

Janae Profit did the qualifying on Thursday on the women’s side, placing 12th overall in the shot put.
