Virginia Cavaliers Basketball Team Faces Tough Tests at Greenbrier Tip-OffThe Virginia Cavaliers basketball team, currently receiving votes just outside the top twenty-five national rankings, heads to White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, for the Greenbrier Tip-Off. Theyll face Northwestern and Butler, marking their first real challenges of the season. While Virginia has started strong with four blowout wins, their easy schedule raises questions about their true strength. Coach Ryan Odom has been pleased with the teams pace and defense, but the real test will be against bigger, more athletic teams like Northwestern and Butler. Northwestern features a strong scorer in senior forward Nick Martinelli, while Butler brings excellent rebounding and three-point defense. Virginia will look to see if their full-court pressure can disrupt these disciplined offenses and if their rebounding prowess can translate against more athletic teams.
