Boston College and Virginia met four times during 2025, with BC winning three of the meetings. The Eagles took two of three from the Cavaliers on the opening weekend of ACC before downing Virginia in a wild late-night affair during the ACC Tournament.
This is going to be the second appearance of the year for Johnson. Johnson threw 10 pitches and fanned two of the three Wake Forest batters he faced last week.
