19-0

I'm amazed by the University of Virginia basketball team. 19-0 after their win today, a close one. I've followed their sports for years, and we've always been middle of the pack. We had an amazing football run just after I graduated, but it ran out at the end of the year and no one really seemed to take them seriously, despite being ranked in the top 10.

All of the top 25 basketball rankings since I left haven't been high, and we've often fallen apart at the end of the year. However this year, as I've watched them streak along, they've met some challenges and won some games. Not many top 25 opponents, but they've beaten a few (Notre Dame, Maryland, a few others).

A big test this week with Duke, so we'll see if they can keep it going.
