So, last weekend didn’t go as planned against North Carolina. With Virginia’s 15-12 loss to the Tar Heels, the Hoos will miss out on the ACC tournament, effectively ending their chance at earning an at large bid to the NCAA tournament. The Hoos are currently 8-5 (0-3, ACC) in new head coach Lars Tiffany’s first season, with four of their five losses coming by one goal (two in overtime). Virginia has hung with every team they’ve played, with the exception of UNC where the Hoos struggled to even get possession.
This week, things don’t get any easier as Virginia is in Durham to take on the bane of the Cavaliers’ existence in Duke.
