The offseason has brought us countless storylines but at last, we get to play some hoops. The Virginia Cavaliers will open their men’s basketball season at JPJ against Campbell on Wednesday night for the first ever meeting between the two squads.
The Fighting Camels struggled in their first year in the CAA, going 8-10 in conference play and 14-18 overall. After Anthony Dell’Orso, the lifeblood of their offense, transferred up to Arizona this offseason, things are looking even more bleak for Kevin McGeehan’s squad in 2024-25. Campbell was picked second to last in the CAA preseason poll and opened the season ranked 318th in Torvik’s full D1 rankings.
