After a disappointing 12-6 loss to Maryland in the NCAA semifinal that ended the Virginia Cavaliers’ season, the ‘Hoos have made their first off-season move.
First reported by Ty Xanders on Wednesday evening, former Bryant midfielder Johnny Hackett will join Virginia next season. Hackett was a three-star recruit coming out of New Trier High School in Indiana but quickly found his footing at Bryant unanimously winning America East Rookie of the Year in 2023.
As an attackman, Hackett notched 41 goals and 12 assists in 17 games his freshman season and was named to the All-America East First Team.
