On Thursday night, the Boston College men’s basketball team played in their third game in three nights, this time against the Virginia Cavaliers in the ACC Quarterfinals. 3rd-seeded UVA got two byes for the first two rounds of the tournament so they were coming onto the court with fresh legs, but BC had the benefit of momentum on their sides after big wins against Miami and Clemson. Their momentum could only carry them so far, though, as the Eagles fell short in overtime to Virginia, 66-60.
Claudell Harris Jr. started red hot for Boston College, hitting three three-pointers right out of the gate to give his team an early lead.
