In one of its most sterling defensive performances of an already impressive season, the Virginia Cavaliers cruised to a 59-44 road win against the Syracuse Orange on Saturday afternoon.
Kyle Guy knocked down a three from the left corner less than 15 seconds in, and after a Syracuse bucket, Ty Jerome found Jack Salt in the low post, who then slammed it down to make it 5-2.
The two teams exchanged buckets for the first 10 or so minutes of the game; it was tied at 13 with 10:19 left until the break.
