It’s all about the Hoos!

@UVACavPerson Thanks for the inclusion, love seeing so many great Hoos on here. 1988 Kansas also came out of the top left as a 6-seed. Just saying.

Introducing… the official UVA Twitter Bracket! 4 regions, 64 accounts - who will be crowned the champion of UVA Twitter?? Seeds are by follower count and inclusion was based on regular tweeting about UVA sports. If we missed you, sorry First round starts tomorrow…

@OGHoo34 That's big time! Congrats to him and you both.

This guys just won Student of the damn year 🥺 my damn dog

Talking March Madness, a big home weekend for both surging diamond sports, men’s tennis and women’s lax home events and more live on @29NewsWVIR. Fun time of year.

With yesterday's win, Virginia Baseball is 125-25 at home over the last 5 seasons. 𝐀 𝐡𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐝 games over .500 at the Dish since the start of 2022. Crazy. Hosting the Hokies this weekend. #GoHoos 🔸⚔️🔹

Virginia is the only ACC school and 1 of 7 nationally to be currently ranked in the Top 25 in Softball, Baseball, Men's Tennis and Women's Tennis. The Hoos join Texas, LSU, Florida, Georgia, Oklahoma and Texas A&M in having all 4 ranked. #EverythingSchool #GoHoos 🔸⚔️🔹

@IAmSteveBullard Definitely easy to run out of characters when over 20 sports have been ranked this year. I am so happy for Coach Hardin and her staff and players for the unbelievable success they have earned! x.com/ericward_7/sta…

The author is completely sleeping on 19-1 Women’s Softball ranked as well. I never sleep on Women’s Softball. #Hoos

Virginia is the only school in the entire country to be ranked in Football, Men's Basketball and Baseball. Finished 16th in the AP Football Poll, ranked #10 in this week's AP Basketball poll and ranked #14 in this week's D1 Baseball poll. #EverythingSchool #GoHoos 🔸⚔️🔹

UVA coach Ryan Odom said he offered his seniors the chance to all start Saturday against VT. Usual bench guys declined, not wanting to change things for a big game. “This whole team has sacrificed all year.”

@DougMilman128 No shade on the voters, I think of it more as an incredible bounceback year. It's always great to see programs improve, but hard to wrap the mind around so many doing it at the same time. Been such a fun year and we have a lot more to go.

@ericward_7 @UVAFootball @UVAMensHoops @UVABaseball So, either: 1. UVA sports are regularly disrespected; or, 2. We’re great at flying under the radar

2025 @UVAFootball: Start season unranked, enter the AP poll a month into the season. 2025-26 @UVAMensHoops: Start season unranked, enter the AP poll a month into the season. 2026 @UVABaseball: Start season unranked, enter the D1 poll a month into the season. #GoHoos 🔸⚔️🔹

@JimmyMagicno4 Grace (orange, center) is our head MBB intern. Eastan, Peter, Caroline, Chloe and Adorra are the others. We have 30 students on the team who all do a phenomenal job.

@ericward_7 What are each of their names? They did an incredible job.

I want to take a moment to thank our interns who have shouldered a significant workload with incredible results this year. They do so much behind-the-scenes work to make a Virginia Gameday feel like a Virginia Gameday and I am so proud of them (and Jamar)!
