Virginia is now 2-0 in the ACC.  Well, in 2025 that is.  Let’s break down how the Cavaliers got there. Plus A win is a win is a win.  Clemson came into the game

The Clemson Tigers (10-6, 3-1) fell 67-60 to the Virginia Cavaliers (10-6, 2-2), despite a 20-point effort from junior Mia Moore. The all-around combo guard made a career high in threes made in a game with four, shooting 4-10 from 3FG and 8-15 from the field.

While Johnson’s and Lattimore’s performances are generally expected to be of high standard, sophomore guard Olivia McGhee and junior guard Paris Clark stepped up as well — forming a well-rounded offense. McGhee’s 14 points and Clark’s 11 points rounded out the team’s offensive performance to steal a crucial ACC road victory.
