It was a win and move on situation for the Cavaliers and Blue Devils. As the Blue Devils played a clean game, UVa’s self inflicted wounds ultimately lead to their demise and elimination from this year’s ACC Tournament.
It started early as Cavaliers’ starter Derek Casey got two quick outs in the first before issuing a full count walk. That inning extending walk would bite UVa as the Blue Devils then rattled off a double and a single to score the walked batter and take an early 1-0 lead.
The Hoos’ bats would take the lead back in the fourth thanks to the meat of their batting order.
