But the past is past and we can’t change it. If we don’t do this, we can easily get stuck in thinking about how we wish we had done things differently in the past. Mindfulness practice can be very helpful in being able to see thoughts as thoughts, getting our attention out of the thought stream itself, and instead observing the thoughts as they arise. However powerful these thoughts may seem, they are just narratives or stories, and we have choices about whether we feed them or believe them or not. Our default narrative, or story that we tell ourselves about the event, can easily focus on blaming ourselves and thinking we’re not good enough. When things don’t go our way it is easy to become disheartened and discouraged. Their story has become an inspiring lesson in how it is possible to grow through adversity. A big part of what made it possible were the choices the coaches and the players made in how they dealt with this historic loss. This is considered by many to be one of the most remarkable turn-arounds in sports history. Things are very different now as the team has gone from the first number 1 seed to ever lose to a number 16 seed to winning the tournament and yes, becoming national champions. I have been thinking about them again as students return to Grounds. I did end it by saying that this year “might even end with UVa finally winning a national championship”.
Last year, I wrote a Monthly Musing about the UVa men’s basketball team and the disappointment they and many others felt as a result of their loss in the first round of the 2018 NCAA tournament.

Things could get very interesting for the Cavaliers with some guys needing to step up in a big way next year. Gardner is a highly-regarded and decorated post player from the AAC while Franklin is a sharpshooting guard with some versatility. There’s hope though with the additions of Jayden Gardner (East Carolina) and Armaan Franklin (Indiana). This year, things could end up a whole lot different. Virginia basketball finished sixth in the nation this past season, allowing just 60.5 ppg on their way to a 13-4 finish in ACC basketball action and another ACC regular-season crown. While the backcourt is still intact, the wing and beyond leave things in a mysterious place for the “best defensive team” in college basketball. With Sam Hauser, Trey Murphy III, and Jay Huff all gone, the cupboard is very bare in the scoring department. 13 seed Ohio and highly-touted Jayson Preston, who finished with 11 points, 13 rebounds, and eight assists. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament in the first round to No. Virginia Basketball didn’t finish the 2020-21 season quite how they started, losing as a No. Virginia Basketball Tony Bennett Michael Thomas Shroyer-USA TODAY Sports
