The Cavaliers fell behind early and were routed, 67-42, by Colorado State in a First Four matchup.

Colorado State's Taviontae Jackson defends Virginia's Reece Beekman in the second half Tuesday night in Dayton, Ohio. DAYTON, Ohio — Another NCAA tournament appearance for the Virginia men’s basketball team yielded another early exit Tuesday night. This one ended with the Cavaliers falling to fellow No. 10 seed Colorado State, 67-42, in a First Four matchup at University of Dayton Arena amid offensive deficiencies that doomed them all season.

Beekman scored a team-high 15 points for the Cavaliers on 4-for-16 shooting. Guard Isaac McKneely, the team’s second-leading scorer this season, went 2 for 13 for six points, and forward Jake Groves shot 1 for 8 from the field and 0 for 4 at the free throw line. That loss to eventual champion North Carolina State in overtime, 73-65, on Friday left the players stunned, particularly because the Cavaliers were leading by six with 51 seconds to play in the second half. But a series of miscues, including going 1 for 5 on free throws, led to the Wolfpack’s Michael O’Connell sinking a desperation three-pointer that banked in at the buzzer to tie it.
