Virginia Triumphs Over Campbell in Season Opener
The Virginia Cavaliers began the Ron Sanchez era with a 65-56 win over Campbell, led by freshman Jacob Cofie who scored 16 points. Despite the victory, the game highlighted areas for improvement, particularly in defense against three-point shooting. Virginia's new offensive scheme showed potential but needs refinement. Andrew Rohde's unexpected start at point guard was mixed, and the team is adjusting post-Tony Bennett's retirement. Overall, the Cavaliers avoided an upset and have promising young talent to develop.
