The University of Virginia men’s basketball team received a champions welcome home on Sunday (March 31).
Fans turned out in full force at Davenport Field at Disharoon Park to celebrate their Hoos, who one day earlier defeated Purdue in the South Region championship to advance to the Final Four. This is the program’s first Final Four appearance since 1984, and its third overall.
