Sinead Farrelly’s goal, coupled with a late tally from Meghan Lenczyk, propelled Virginia to a little bit harder than

Tonight, Gelnovatch will unveil his new creation when Virginia opens its regular season on the road at Portland as part of the Nike Invitational.

Caroline Miller has the ability to make defenders look downright silly — something she did so on numerous occasions on Sunday afternoon in notching two goals and an assist during Virginia’s 7-0 shellacking of Hofstra.

Virginia, behind a goal and three assists from freshman Caroline Miller, completed its annual thumping of Liberty, 5-0, in front of a crowd of 1,060 on Friday night at Klockner Stadium.

On a night where Virginia couldn’t finish anything, a sharp Connecticut team took advantage of its own scant opportunities and came up with a pair of goals to end the Cavaliers’ season.

On Sunday at Klockner Stadium, Swanson’s team looked comatose in its final regular-season game, a 1-0 loss to the No. 18 Demon Deacons.

Each time that UVa has started to get offensive production from a first-year, that player has gone down with an injury soon after.

For the better part of a century, the Boston Red Sox suffered from the “Curse of the Bambino” against the New York Yankees.

Tony Tchani, the team’s leading scorer, doesn’t appear to be severely injured. Tchani had to be carried off the field by teammates after sustaining an injury to his right knee early in the game.

Virginia put forth one of its biggest clunkers to date, allowing the visiting Lancers two goals in the final 11 minutes, playing them to a 2-2 tie.
