Great day to be a Hoo on Sunday, as the Men's soccer team beat previously undefeated and top-ranked Akron to win the NCAA Soccer Championship. Played right down in the hear of North Carolina (Cary--near my folks, brother, sister and The Hammer), the game ended in a 0-0 tie, then there were two scoreless overtimes. UVA won on penalty kicks, an admittedly crappy way to win--but that's the way the game is played.
Wahoowa, Wahoowa, Uni-V Virginia, Hoo Rah Ray, Hoo Rah Ray, Hey, Hey UVA!
Congrats. This game was played in Cary and we had talked about going but couldn't generate any enthusiasm. Too much Christmas stuff to do.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, well done.
That good old song of wahoowa, we'll sing it o'er and o'er! It cheers our hearts and warms our blood to hear them shout and roar. We come from old Virgin-i-a, where all is bright and gay. Let's all join hands and give a yell for dear old UVA!
ReplyDeleteJesus, calm down with the fight song stuff. I'm just glad Carolina didn't win.
ReplyDeleteAnd besides, the UVA fight song is 99 bottles of beer on the (serpentine) wall.
