It’ll be mid-April soon. Time for the UVA Baseball team to decide what it’s going to be this season.

Let’s just go ahead and say the Road to Omaha starts now, with #13 Virginia (24-10, 8-7 ACC) in South Bend for a three-game weekend series with Notre Dame (15-13, 6-9 ACC).

The Irish are 63rd in the RPI at this writing, so don’t sleep on them.
