Capital One executives will be in Scott Stadium on Saturday to award the 2015 Capital One Cup and $200,000 in student-athlete scholarships to the UVA men’s athletics program.
The new hardware and check will be presented during the Notre Dame vs. Virginia football game during the first timeout of the first quarter.
UVA Athletics Director Craig Littlepage will accept the honor along with the student-athletes who helped bring the Capital One Cup home.
Highlights from the 2014-2015 season:
The Cavaliers kicked off the season by capturing its seventh national title in men’s soccer, propelling them to No. 1 in the fall Capital One Cup standings, alongside North Dakota State and Ohio State.
During the winter season Virginia earned points in men’s basketball but slid to No. 2 in the overall standings, just behind Ohio State.
In the spring, Virginia’s big championship in men’s tennis, along with the program’s first national baseball championship, powered the Cavs to the top position – overcoming Oregon and Ohio State to earn the school’s first-ever Capital One Cup trophy with a total of 149 points.
