Game will be played on Jan. 18
CHARLOTTESVILLE—The Virginia men’s basketball team’s game with UNC Wilmington originally scheduled to be played on Dec. 19 has been rescheduled for Jan. 18 at John Paul Jones Arena. A starting time will not be set until after it’s determined whether the game will be televised. Original tickets for the game, including Family Package tickets, will be valid.
The UNC Wilmington-Virginia game was postponed on Dec. 19 because of hazardous travel conditions caused by the recent heavy snowfall in the Charlottesville area.
“We appreciate the UNC Wilmington athletics administration and men’s basketball staff as well as our men’s basketball staff working to get this game rescheduled,” Virginia Athletics Director Craig Littlepage said. “We look forward to the game being played on Jan. 18.”
Virginia hosts Miami on Jan. 16 and plays at Wake Forest on Jan. 23. UNC Wilmington plays at Northeastern on Jan. 16 and at Georgia State on Jan. 20.

That fives UNCW a tough road trip- Boston, C’ville, Atlanta.
I’d love to read the fine print of some of those contracts. My guess is there is a weather clause in there and they have to make a reasonable effort to get back there and play if possible. One trip may be worth the money they make. Not sure about two!
