How the legacies of three Virginia football players live on

Every day for the past year, Virginia athletic director Carla Williams has made sure to check in with the families of Devin Chandler, Lavel Davis Jr. and D'Sean Perry. Today, on the one-year anniversary of their tragic deaths, she will do the same. She knows their pain has been a constant, no matter what the calendar says.

On Nov. 13, 2022, Chandler, Davis and Perry -- Virginia football players, friends and teammates -- were shot and killed on a bus after returning to campus from a field trip to Washington, D.C., to see a play about Emmett Till.
