MILLER LEAVES COACHING POST AT UVA

Jane Miller, the Virginia women's lacrosse coach since 1983 and an assistant athletic director and senior women's administrator since July 1992, has resigned her coaching position to concentrate on her administrative responsibilities.

Terry Holland, UVa's athletic director, appointed Julie Meyers, a Virginia assistant for the past four years and a former Cavaliers player, as interim head coach for the remainder of the school year.

In other sports in the region:

The Roanoke College women's soccer team outshot Greensboro College 36-4 on the way to a 1-0 victory in Salem.

Midfielder Ali Oglesby scored the only goal, with 15:35 left in the game, and Jen Pohanka recorded 12 saves as Roanoke shut out Bridgewater in a field hockey game in Salem.

Lynchburg College's Nicole Mohr scored a goal in each half as the Hornets defeated Hollins 3-0 at Hollins. Goalie Cindy Wood had 16 saves for Hollins (3-7, 0-5).

In Lynchburg, Chris Wallace fired a 79 to lead the host Hornets to a team title in the Lynchburg College Fall Classic.
