With the fall athletic season starting up in the very near future, we’re back for our second year of “Around The Corner,” a daily blog that highlights some of the most recent articles, posts, and tweets that pertain to the world of UVA sports. So, without further ado, let’s check in on what’s happening as the summer begins to wind down:
