Slavov started all 17 games he appeared in at midfield for UVA. The Alpharetta, Ga., native had one goal and one assist in his first season with the Cavaliers. He was an All-Freshman Team selection after playing 1496 minutes, fourth-most for UVA in 2021.

Ueland played every minute of the 17 games he appeared in. The Bryne, Norway, native led UVA’s defensive unit that saw four shutouts in 2021. Ueland scored a brace, converting two penalty kicks, in the win over High Point. He added an assist in the win over Western Michigan.
