WILLIAMSBURG, VA. - William & Mary will be back on the diamond tomorrow afternoon as the Tribe visits No. 17 ranked Virginia. The Green and Gold (7-5) will look to hand the Cavaliers (11-0) their first loss of the 2023 campaign. 
 
The Tribe are coming off a 2-2 week that saw wins against George Mason and Canisius as well as setbacks against Old Dominion and Fairfield, while UVA won a midweek game with VMI before sweeping Rhode Island. 
 
Cory Wall earned CAA Pitcher of the Week honors on Monday after a two-appearance week in which the righty earned a win and a save. Wall gave up one run on three hits over 7.0 innings pitched and struck out 10 men while walking zero. On the season, Wall ranks in the top-50 nationally in strikeouts per nine innings pitched and strikeout to walk ratio.
 
As a team, the staff has been outstanding early this season, ranking first in the CAA and 22nd in the nation with a 3.19 ERA. Wall's 0.70 WHIP is second on the squad to Rojo Prarie's 0.63, and just a notch above Zach Tsakounis' 0.71 mark. 
 
Joe Delossantos stayed hot, as the senior has hit safely in all 12 games this season. The outfielder has also been active on the bases, ranking 10th in the nation with 10 stolen bases. As a unit, William & Mary ranks 17th with 25 total bags stolen. 
 
The matchup with Virginia will be the Tribe's final test before opening up conference play. William & Mary will host CAA-favorite Charleston March 10-12 at Plumeri Park.
