Virginia Tech, Virginia Split ACC Baseball Series Amid Weather Delays

In the final ACC regular-season series between Virginia and Virginia Tech baseball teams, Virginia secured a dominant 12-2 victory on Thursday at English Field, led by Jay Woolfolk's strong pitching and a powerful offensive showing with 20 hits. However, the series was evened by Virginia Tech on Friday with a dramatic 5-4 win after a nearly three-hour rain delay, highlighted by a clutch pinch-hit solo home run from David Lewis and strong bullpen performance by Grant Manning. The Hokies' win was a crucial momentum boost as they prepare for the ACC Tournament, while Virginia aims to maintain postseason hopes. Key players for Virginia included Harrison Didawick and Chris Arroyo, while Virginia Tech’s Ben Watson extended his hitting streak to 18 games. Despite the Hokies' lower ACC record, the rivalry remains intense with both teams fighting for tournament seeding and postseason positioning.
