What to know about the UVA men’s team
No men’s basketball coach in UVA history has won more games in his first season than Ryan Odom’s 29.
Odom’s Cavaliers (29-5) have six players averaging at least seven points per game, led by freshman forward Thijs De Ridder, whose 15.5 points per game helped earn him first-team All-ACC honors.
This is UVA’s 27th appearance in the men’s NCAA Tournament, and its 11th in the last 15 seasons. The Cavaliers are seeking their first win in the “Big Dance” since defeating Texas Tech in the 2019 NCAA championship game.
The Hoos (19-11), under fourth-year coach Amaka “Mox” Agugua-Hamilton, also have six players averaging at least seven points per game. They are headlined by junior guard Kymora Johnson, a Charlottesville native and three-time All-ACC selection whose 88 3-pointers this season are a program record.
Johnson’s 1,634 career points are tied for 10th-most in program history.
This is the UVA women’s 26th NCAA Tournament appearance.
