Ordoñez tallied seven points, with three goals and an assist, last week to help the Cavaliers remain unbeaten in the ACC and take over the top spot in the standings – locking up at least a share of the ACC regular-season title with wins over Louisville and Miami.

Against the Cardinals on Thursday, Ordoñez scored the game-winning goal – her 13th goal of the season and her 13th game-winning goal of her career. On Sunday against the Hurricanes, she tallied a brace and added an assist – notching her 40th career goal to move within one of tying Morgan Brian for fifth all-time on the career list.

Virginia returns to action on Thursday night when the Cavaliers travel to Florida State to close out the regular-season schedule. Kick is set for 7 p.m. on ACC Network.
