The No. 31 Tech men's tennis team split a pair of conference road games this weekend.
The Hokies (7-2, 2-1) dropped their first ACC match of the year and only their second match total on the season to the Cavaliers, 6-1, before toppling Maryland by a 5-2 count.
UVa. would test the Hokies' strength in both singles and doubles play on Friday.
However, things wouldn't favor Tech. It dropped all of its doubles matches and lost five of its six singles matches.
The only Hokie to emerge victorious on the day was No. 86 ranked Yoann Re after he upset Virginia's No. 6 ranked Dominic Inglot.
The Hokies would get their act together on Sunday, however, as they would cruise past the No. 73 Maryland Terrapins in College Park. The victorious Hokies of the day include Yoann Re, Luka Somen, Brandon Corace and Patrick Daciek.
The Hokies also took home a win in doubles, but the Terrapins proved to be too much for the Hokies to win the doubles point as Maryland captured two of the three matches on the day.
The Hokies return home to host the No. 33 Louisville Cardinals on March 6 at 5 p.m.
