It’s been the downfall of previous Virginia teams in March. The Cavaliers don’t have a “Plan B.” When things go awry — when opponents are hitting those heavily contested shots and Virginia simply isn’t making enough, even when they’re open — the Cavaliers are doomed.

The Duke-UNC game in prime time on Friday night at the 2019 ACC Tournament produced for ESPN a 3.0 overnight rating, making it the highest rated Champ Week game on ESPN.

Down two runs in the top of the ninth, UVA (9-8, 2-2 ACC) scored three times to come away with a 9-8, series-opening win over Georgia Tech (11-7, 1-3 ACC) at Russ Chandler Stadium.

Zion Williamson scored the go-ahead bucket with 30.3 seconds left, tipping in his own miss on a short jumper, and Coby White missed in the final seconds in a thrilling finish that saw Duke defeat North Carolina 74-73 in the ACC Tournament semifinals Friday night.

The Virginia Cavaliers, with 13-and-a-half minutes left, took a 45-44 lead on a Kihei Clark jumper. It looked like the Cavaliers, after falling behind by as much as 10, had stemmed the tide.
