The Virginia Cavaliers women’s soccer team take the pitch on Saturday night at 6:00 p.m. against the Virginia Tech Hokies at Klockner Stadium. It’s coming about a month later than it would have in the before times—last year at this time, the team had already played two exhibition and six regular season games before September 12. But by golly, we’ve got sports, we’ve got soccer, and we’ve got ourselves a season coming up!
It wasn’t easy getting here. The initial schedule was a work several years in the making, head coach Steve Swanson told the media on Thursday.
