CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – Boston College scored first on freshman Aidan Farwell's first collegiate goal, but Leo Afonso scored twice to lead Virginia back for a 2-1 ACC victory on Friday night at Klockner Stadium.
The Eagles dropped to 4-5-2 (0-3-2 ACC) while the Cavaliers posted their first ACC win and improved to 4-6-2 (1-4-0).
Farwell's goal came just five minutes into the first half with assists from classmate Drew Serafino and junior Michael Suski.
Afonso answered for the Cavaliers in the 17th minute, capitalizing on a collision near the edge of the BC box which took down Brennan Klein (2 saves).
