Last Sunday, a gunman opened fire on a bus, which was returning from a class field trip to Washington, D.C. The shooting left three dead and one injured. The victims were all members of the University of Virginia football team, including former Wisconsin receiver Devin Chandler. D’Sean Perry and Lavel Davis Jr. were the other victims, and all were juniors for the Cavaliers.
In the wake of the tragedy, Virginia canceled the last home game of the season against Coastal Carolina. As of now, Virginia will play the final game of this season against Virginia Tech next Saturday.
