Good Morning, Hoos! Have you seen the Hoos’ new look yet? 👀

What else do we have brewing this morning?

🏟️ Under the lights
🏑 Ranked clashes
​⚔️ And much, much more!

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Under The Lights. Coming off its highest scoring output in the last five years, Virginia football begins ACC play this weekend under the lights of Scott Stadium, hosting Stanford at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday on the ACC Network!

🔼  Unprecedented Endowments. Virginia men’s lacrosse received two anonymous seven-figure commitments to establish endowed scholarships. Both of the commitments are historic - the first seven-figure gift in program history and the single largest commitment in program history.

🔼  Coming Into His Own. Sophomore wide receiver Kameron Courtney finished the 2024 season as Virginia’s offensive rookie of the year, and he isn’t showing any signs of slowing down. The sophomore hauled in four passes for a team-high 67 yards, rushed once for 23 yards and a score, and returned a kickoff 38 yards during UVAs’s rout of William & Mary last weekend. The touchdown marked his first as a Hoo.

“It was kind of crazy,” he said, “because it was kind of the same play I ran in high school and I ended up scoring on it. It felt great, kind of deja vu a little bit.”

🔼 On The Pitch. Virginia men’s soccer (4-1-1) will welcome top-ranked Wake Forest to Charlottesville this evening. The game is slated to get underway at 7 p.m. on the ACC Network. It’s the third straight matchup for Virginia against a top-10 opponent, with the Cavs playing to a 2-2 draw against No. 8 Virginia Tech and a 1-0 win against No. 6. Louisville.

🔼 Wahoo Central. A fourth-year student in the McIntire School of Commerce, Umberto Pelà is in his second year as one of the UVA men's soccer team's captains. He sits down with Jeff White for an all-new episode of the Wahoo Central Podcast.

🔼 Ranked Clashes. No. 3 Virginia field hockey is set to open ACC play this weekend. The Cavaliers will host No. 13 Boston College at 5 p.m. at Turf Field this evening, then will hit the road to take on No. 4 Syracuse on Sunday at noon. Both games will be broadcast on ACCNX.

🔼 On To The Next.

Rafa Jodar advanced at the Columbus Challenger, moving on to the quarterfinals today against Germany’s Daniel Masur. It’s the seventh time this year that he’s advanced to the singles quarterfinals of a Challenger.

🔼 Closing Out Non-Conference Play. Virginia volleyball (5-3) will close out its non-conference slate this weekend at the Sports Import Classic in Columbus, Ohio. The Cavaliers will take on Ohio State tonight at 5 p.m. on Big Ten+, then battle Michigan on Saturday at 3 p.m. on Big Ten+.

Today’s Trivia Question: Virginia field hockey has been ranked in the Top 10 of the NFHCA poll since the first week of what season?
