🔼 They’reee Bacck. The prep work starts NOW.

After reaching a second bowl game in the past three years, the ODU football team has high aspirations for this fall and the work is underway as the Monarchs returned to the practice field this week for the official start of spring football in Norfolk.

🔼 Sunny Start. Now that’s the way to kick off conference play.

Led by a stellar outing from freshman sensation Connor van Schalkwyk, the ODU men’s tennis team, who entered the week ranked in the top-50 nationally, grabbed a 4-2 win over Troy to kick off Sun Belt action.

Facing off against nationally-ranked Mario Martinez at the No.1 singles spot, van Schalkwyk grinded out a 6-4, 2-6, 6-2 win to spark the victory for the Monarchs.

🔼 Getting Offensive. No bears were involved, but some lions and tigers were definitely at the Bud this week.

ODU’s baseball team broke out the sticks this week in a mid-week series with Princeton, scoring 20 runs while splitting the two games, dropping a 10-8 decision on Tuesday before rolling 12-1 on Wednesday.

Leading the offensive outburst were senior Kenny Levari and sophomore Jackson Tone, who combined for six hits and 10 RBIs in the two contests.

The Dueling Pianos is back at Apex Entertainment in Virginia Beach! This show will take place on Friday, March 1st and tickets are still available! Enjoy three hours of music, fun and food!
