Virginia Cavaliers open 2015-2016 college basketball season with rout of Morgan State Bears

The Virginia Cavaliers opened up the 2015-2016 with a 86-48 victory over a hapless Morgan State team.

Senior center Mike Tobey lead the scoring for Virginia with 15 points, shooting 7-8 from the field and pulling down 8 rebounds. Devon Hall shot 5-8 from the field, including 1-3 from beyond the arc. Darius Thompson, harnessing the power of an orange streak in his hair, and Anthony Gill also put up 12 points.

The Virginia defense caused 12 turnovers, including four steals.

#UVA out-rebounded Morgan St. by 29, the largest margin for the #Hoos in at least 5 seasons.
