Virginia Tech Hokies vs. No. 19/19 Virginia Cavaliers Postgame Notes Jan. 4, 2020 John Paul Jones Arena | Charlottesville, Va. FINAL SCORE: Virginia Tech 39, No. 19/19 Virginia 65 RECORDS AND NOTABLES ● Virginia Tech falls to 10-4 overall and 1-2 in ACC play. ● Tech is now 1-1 on the road in ACC play, with its lone victory coming over Clemson 67-60 in the season opener on Nov. 5. ● Tech trails Virginia in the all-time series 94-56, with the Cavaliers owning the last three meetings. Tech’s last win was a 61-60 overtime victory in Charlottesville in 2018. ● The last time Tech was held to under 40 points was on Feb. 18, 1967 at East Carolina in a 43-33 loss. ● UP NEXT: The Hokies will continue their road stretch as they travel to Syracuse, New York to take on the Orange on Tuesday, Jan. 7 at 9 p.m. ET at the Carrier Dome. TEAM NOTES ● Virginia Tech used the starting lineup of Wabissa Bede, Tyrece Radford, P.J. Horne, Landers Nolley II, and Nahiem Alleyne. After tying a season high of 49 points off the bench, Tech just mustered seven points versus the Cavaliers. ● KEY FIRST HALF RUN: The Hokies struggled to find offense early due to stifling defense from Virginia. Tech fell behind 26-11 late in the first when redshirt freshman Landers Nolley finished off an old-fashioned three-point play followed by a triple from Nolley to cut into the deficit. Nolley scored 15 of Tech’s 17 points in the first half as Virginia entered halftime leading 30-17. -

March 2020 YEARS in the MAKING
March 2020 YEARS IN THE MAKING In the Fall of 2018, Student Council legislation FB18-11 was passed with the goal of constructing an online handbook for transfer students at the University of Virginia. This initiative was continued in Fall 2019 with the passing of FB19-15. The following, “An Unofficial Transfer’s Guide to Grounds,” outlines essential information about steps to take and helpful suggestions before and after transfer students arrive at the University of Virginia. This handbook was completed by UVA transfer students in an effort to share institutional and cultural knowledge, as well as their first-hand accounts of their experiences at UVA. In order to reflect the current needs of incoming and current transfer students, this collective effort falls on us, the transfer community, to maintain and represent accurate information. The version history of the current handbook reflects the many iterations it has undergone and will undergo. If you see any outdated information or have suggestions for future versions, please email [email protected]. To all transfers - new and old - welcome to the University of Virginia! We are thrilled to have you on grounds! The unique challenges that many UVA transfer students face can often lead to confusion and unwarranted stress, especially in their first semesters. The Transfer Resources Committee created the following handbook, which consists of compiled UVA and non-UVA resources, perspectives from different transfer students, and difficult-to-find academic and social information in order to help alleviate confusion and stress. Additionally, we hope that this handbook will act as a platform to amplify the transfer student voice. -
