Zeglinski ends slump at exactly the right time

Sat, 12 Mar 2010 14:07:00 GMT

Virginia’s nine-game losing streak was weighing heavily on Sammy Zeglinski and his teammates headed into Thursday’s opening round of the ACC tournament.

Each mounting loss was magnified as critics dissected every coaching move, every statistical shortcoming. If that wasn’t enough of a burden, the sudden dismissal of top player Sylven Landesberg last week added to the Cavaliers’ woes.

Perhaps it is that inexplicable dynamic of adversity that bonds a team together, draws out the best effort. Maybe the Cavaliers figured, “What the heck, we’ve got nothing to lose.”

Cavaliers not done just yet

In the middle of the floor on the Virginia locker room was a giant duffle bag. Inside of the bag was a huge stack of uniforms.

Turns out they won’t have to be put in mothballs just yet.

On Thursday afternoon at the Greensboro Coliseum, Virginia — playing without suspended leading scorer Sylven Landesberg — finally got back in the win column. Behind a suddenly sharpshooting Sammy Zeglinski and some newfound pride on defense, the Wahoos upset Boston College, 68-62, in the first round of the ACC tournament.
