Virginia struggled mightily in the first half, scoring just 2 points through the first 14 minutes. But the Cavaliers scored the final 11 points of the half, and took a 23-20 lead into intermission.
Thanks to the emergence of Ben and Bobby, coupled with the talented attack and quality defense, all signs point to success in 2015. Let’s hope the trend continues on Sunday at noon against No. 5 Virginia.
B.J. Johnson scored 19 points, Rakeem Christmas added 14 despite being in foul trouble and Syracuse held ninth-ranked Notre Dame to 35 percent shooting in a 65-60 victory Tuesday night.
