Away at Syracuse and home vs NC is a grueling next 10 days. If they continue to play like they have for the last two games - excellence in goal, unselfish zippy offense - they should be great games to watch.

Just an FYI, last weekends UVA's regular win over Duke was first time since April 17, 2004.

That is almost unfathomable. UVA has beaten Duke at other times - ACC tournament

But it was 22 years since UVA had beaten Duke in the regular season.

What's going on at UVA? Are they still considered on of the top programs? I haven't kept up in past years. Seems like 90s and 2000s they were one of the top programs. Don't hear about them as much any more.

Yes - they are still a top program.

NCAA champions in 2019 and 2021. NCAA Quarterfinals in 2022. NCAA semifinals in 2023. NCAA Quarterfinals in 2024.

Missed tournament last year, and 2026 has been a mixed bag so far, but they did just beat ND and Duke on back-to-back weekends.

UVA’s bar couldn’t be higher, so when there’s a down year (like all programs have), it gets more attention.

They were in the semifinals in 2024.

What a run they had. UVA fans take it for granted, but that 5 year stretch around the 2020 Covid year may never be replicated. Champs, Champs, QF, SF, SF. Would love to see them add to the aura this year.
