Maryland-Baltimore County at Virginia

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (Interstat) — The undefeated Virginia women’s basketball team looks to continue its dominant start to the season when it hosts Maryland-Baltimore County on Thursday at John Paul Jones Arena.

The Cavaliers (2-0) have opened with a pair of lopsided victories, most recently an 80-35 win over Bucknell on Sunday. Guard Kymora Johnson led the way with 23 points and seven assists, while forward Tabitha Amanze posted an 11-point, 11-rebound double-double.

Virginia’s defense has been stifling, holding its first two opponents to a combined 71 points.

UMBC (1-1) arrives after a 54-87 loss at Maryland last Thursday. The Retrievers were led in that game by Jade Tillman’s 17 points and Kennedy Austin’s 14 points. Their season began with a 90-49 rout of Stevenson.

The game marks the first of a two-game homestand for the Cavaliers, who host Radford on Sunday. UMBC returns home to face Brown on Sunday.
