The Virginia-Syracuse rivalry could not be closer, historically.
The Cavs and Orange have split the series 18-18. Each team has scored 466 goals. The last five games have been one-goal affairs, including the last time they met a 15-14 Virginia overtime victory in 2019.
The teams meet 6 p.m. Saturday on ACC Network, the nightcap to a full day of lacrosse. It’s a game reflective of the talent in the ACC and also the state of lacrosse in 2021.
Virginia (3-0) is riding high after a full slate of preseason practices and three games in February. Syracuse (0-1), which was much more limited in preseason practice and did not have any games in the early part of February, is looking to bounce back after a disappointing opener to a promising season in which a championship is the expectation.
