Hoos Brew 5/9: A Look At History

Today, we're putting UVA lacrosse into perspective.

Good morning! Take a few minutes while you drink your coffee this morning to listen to this message from Virginia running back Cody Brown on mental health awareness.

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

⚾️ Where we stand
🥍 A little perspective
​⚔️ And much, much more!

🔼 Coastal Closing. We’ve got two weeks left in the regular season, and Virginia baseball has two great opportunities to move up in the ACC standings before it heads to Durham for the conference tournament. Here’s where things stand in the ACC Coastal:

  1. Duke: 14-9 in ACC play

  2. Miami: 14-10

  3. Virginia: 13-11

  4. North Carolina: 11-11

  5. Virginia Tech: 11-12

  6. Georgia Tech: 10-14

  7. Pitt: 9-13

Duke and Miami, the two teams Virginia is currently chasing, play each other in a pivotal series to end the regular season. The Hoos have series against Louisville (9-15 in ACC play) and Georgia Tech remaining.

The Hoos shot a 1-under 287 on the day, just one shot behind Iowa State and Oregon for fourth place. ACC champion Amanda Sambach led the way for Virginia, shooting a 3-under 69 that puts her in a tie for fifth heading into day two.

🔼 Hoos Who. We’ll dive into UVA’s matchups closer to game day (spoiler alert: they should be fun ones), but today we wanted to point out some historical numbers leading up to the NCAA Opening Round.

Virginia Men’s Lacrosse vs. Richmond, May 13

⚔️ Top-2 seed for the first time since 2010
