Cavalier Day

It was a good weekend for Virginia football. No, not American football; the Cavaliers lost to Miami on Saturday. No, it was a good weekend for football, as in futbol. Soccer.
The fourth seed Cavaliers won their ninth ACC Tournament Championship (there have been 18 ACC soccer tournaments), beating Maryland 2-1.
Shortly after Virginia continued its dominance of ACC soccer, DC United, a team with a history full of former Cavs, won its fourth MLS title, beating the Kansas City Wizards 3-2. Two of the three United goals (and very nearly the third) were scored by Virginia product and former ACC Player of the Year Alecko Eskandarian.
DC United won the first three MLS titles behind coach Bruce Arena who previously built a dynasty in Charlottesville, winning five straight national titles. Those original United teams were littered with former Cavaliers, including John Harkes and Jeff Agoos.
Note: I’ll be out of town on bidness until Wednesday, so there won’t be any posting. Talk amongst yourselves.
