NCAA Men's BasketballVirginia will play the first of two Saturday-Monday turnarounds in ACC play when the Cavaliers travel to take on the Pittsburgh Panthers on Monday night in the Steel City. Both teams are coming off of a loss on Saturday,

Ames rattled in a jumper from the free-throw line to extend Virginia's lead to 30-10 with 4:46 left in the half. Ames made seven shots and scored 16 of Virginia's 34 first-half points, while Pitt had just 19 points on 6-of-20 shooting. It was Pitt's lowest scoring first half of the season.

Losses hurt, especially when they happen to a team in desperate need of a victory. Yet words can hurt just as bad (no matter how truthful they are). That was Pitt’s situation Monday night after a 73-57 loss to Virginia at Petersen Events Center.
