”The sky isn’t falling,” writes The Daily Progress’ Bennett Conlin following UVA’s overtime loss to Syracuse on Saturday. “It’s far too early to call this Virginia basketball season a lost cause.”
Women’s basketball (7-9, 2-3 ACC) picked up another conference victory on Sunday, besting Boston College on the road, 69-52. The win comes on the heels of Thursday’s come-from-behind triumph over Duke.
