The Big Preview: Virginia vs. Hopkins
Williams and the Hoos take on JHU.It’s officially spring, Wahoo fans. Yes, I know it technically became spring on the 21st, but nothing welcomes the season like the Virginia-Hopkins lacrosse game. The #15 Hoos (5-3, 0-2 ACC) are coming off of a heartbreaking overtime loss to #2 Notre Dame, while the #17 Blue Jays (4-3) have dropped three straight games.
The meeting is the 92nd all time between the two teams, and Virginia has won nine of the last 14 matchups - including the last three, all of which were decided by one goal. Last season, Virginia won 13-12 in overtime and retained the Doyle Smith Cup thanks to a game-winning goal by Mike D’Amario.
