Randolph hits 3-pointer: Wake 14, UVa 3 (2nd Qtr.)
Virginia will not get blanked. The Wahoos will need more than field goals to win this one, however. ... UVa quarterback Marc Verica, who started the game 2 for 7, does not look sharp. I expected him to be fired up after his late-game fumble last week. Shows what I know. ... Props to St. Anne’s-Belfield for winning its playoff game against The Covenant School today. Howie Long, Jr. will try to lead STAB to its sixth title under coach John Blake next weekend at Atlantic Shores. ... Virginia’s run defense needs a shot of life. Is it time for Darren Childs to make an appearance? ... Yannick Reyering grabbed his helmet before Randolph’s field goal so it appears that it was a gut decision by Papa Groh to use the rookie. If Randolph can perform at that level, Virginia would have two extra scholarships open for next year. The Cavaliers could add a walk-on kicker and tell Reyering and Hinkibein to hit the road. ... Clint Sintim has not been a major factor in the game at this point. Wake has blocked the standout linebacker quite well. ... Can anybody say UConn? How about Duke? That is what this Virginia team looks like. Miami is certainly lingering. That falls on the head honcho.
