Tennis Season Arrives It's hard to believe, but the spring sports season is underway. Yes, even though it's January. The women's tennis team wraps up play in the UVa Winter Invitational at the Boar's Head Sports Club on Monday, while the men's tennis team hits the courts on Tuesday for a home match against William & Mary that begins at 6 p.m. Admission is free. The Virginia men have nine matches at home to open the season. The Cavaliers have won 74 straight matches at home. On Friday, the Hoos host No. 16 Illinois at 6 p.m. That matches features a jersey retirement ceremony for former All-American Brian Vahaly. The men's and women's teams are expected to be among the nation's best in 2011. The Cavalier men open the season ranked No. 1 for the third time in the past six years; the Hoos have five players ranked in the nation's top 30 in the individual rankings. Freshman Alex Domijan (3), senior Sanam Singh (10), junior Drew Courtney (17), sophomore Jarmere Jenkins (19) and senior Michael Shabaz (27) all place highly in those rankings. The Hoos are seeking their first ever National Championship as they continue to build on the program's recent success. Virginia has won three consecutive ITA National Team Indoor Championships, six ACC Championships, and seven ACC regular season titles in the past 10 years under Brian Boland. The Cavaliers have reached the NCAA Tournament Semifinals three times. The Hoos are coming off of an oustanding 2009-10 season. The Cavaliers won the ITA National Team Indoor Championship and posted a fourth consecutive undefeated ACC run. Virginia set a school record for wins in a season with a 39-2 mark and reached the NCAA semifinals for the third time in the past four seasons. The Virginia women open 2011 as the No. 24 team in the nation as the program tries to take the next step in its growth. Over the past five seasons, the Cavaliers advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament four times. The Hoos have a school-record five players nationally ranked in singles - sophomore Erin Vierra (29), junior Lindsey Hardenbergh (56), sophomore Hana Tomljanovic (73), Emily Fraser (88), and sophomore Maria Fuccillo (111). UVa ends the week with a pair of matches on Saturday against Brown and Richmond.

This Week In Recruiting Weekend developments
Huge recruiting weekend Three of Virginia's top remaining targets - Grant, Hendy, and Osbourn (Manassas, VA) athlete Dominique Terrell - are scheduled to make official visits to Charlottesville this weekend. They won't be alone. Nineteen of Virginia's 24 commitments are also set to make official visits as well, making certainly for a big-time football recruiting weekend. I'll have another "Final Stretch" piece posted this week with more details on the weekend and how Virginia looks with those remaining targets. I'll also have an article on defensive end commit Marco Jones, who claims to be solid in his decision after flirting with Maryland last month. The 6-3, 250-pound senior will make his official to UVa this weekend.
Chris Horne, our resident recruiting expert, provides updates throughout the week for Edge subscribers about UVa's commitments and recruiting targets in football and men's basketball.
