Catching up with the Hoos

Two great “where are they now” pieces today. First up is a feature from Rival’s Damon Dillman where he speaks to @UVABaseball alums who are working at various levels in Major League Baseball. “For the Love of the Game” has never been a truer idiom than in the case of Justin Novak. Give this article a read.

Next is this piece from 5280, “Denver’s Mile High Magazine” about @UVAFootball alum Will Barker and his highly visible COVID project. Read the feature here to find out how the former NFL lineman ended up a street artist.

The Cracked Racquets podcast undertook the ambitious project of doing an interview with all 32 head coaches at the #NCAATennis Sweet 16. They got all but one of them, including both Andres Pedroso and Sara O’Leary. Give a listen as both coaches talk about the championship as they head to Orlando and the final site.
