#HoosCare

Last night #UVAMBB head coach Tony Bennett and former Cavaliers Justin Anderson and Ralph Sampson as well as many others donned the rented shoes to kick off the 4th annual Bowl for Kids’ Sake at AMF Kegler’s Lanes Thursday night in Charlottesville. Proceeds from the fundraiser benefit the Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Central Blue Ridge. The Daily Progress’ Andrew Shurtleff captured the event in this photo gallery.

#HoosRising

An article from Athlon Sports & Life looking at the top-15 players in the ACC on the rise in 2016 suggests that DL Andrew Brown is a Hoo on the rise and one to watch out for next season.

Also, @UVACoachBronco unveiled the poster below of Commonwealth pride on his Twitter account yesterday and it immediately exploded across the social media platforms.
