Getting past the rankings

<p>Something else to add: I think UVA offers a great balance between academics and athletics, so it’s an ideal place for a student-athlete. However, for others, athletic events are often great to attend since we pretty much dominate in every sport. Men’s tennis, lacrosse, baseball, soccer and women’s rowing, for instance have all been ranked #1 this year. These student-athletes have been in Olympics and UVA as a whole collected several medals in Beijing, including gold.</p>
