This Week In Recruiting Virginia football will host a junior day on Wednesday. TheSabre.com will provide coverage leading up to and following the junior day. First, I'll feature Central Catholic (Allentown, PA) quarterback Brendan Nosovitch, who will be one of those visitors on Wednesday. UVa's coaches, led by primary recruiter Mike Faragalli, began recruiting the talented signal caller last summer.

Issue No. 429 - January 18, 2010 Wright Becomes UVa's All-Time Leading Scorer UVa Athletics Media Relations, Official Release Monica Wright scored 20 points to pass Dawn Staley as the women's career scoring leader in Virginia history, but No. 23 Virginia lost 61-60 to Maryland on Monday night.
