Virginia-Virginia Tech football game canceled in wake of shooting

The Virginia-Virginia Tech football game scheduled for Saturday has been canceled in the wake of a shooting earlier this month that left three Cavaliers players dead, the ACC announced Monday night.

In a statement, the league said, "The ACC and Virginia Tech continue to support UVA following the devastating tragedy."

The cancelation means the seasons are over for both the Cavaliers (3-7, 1-6 ACC) and the Hokies (3-8, 1-6).

Virginia also canceled its football game last weekend against Coastal Carolina and held a memorial instead at John Paul Jones Arena.
