A woman from D.C. is facing a felony charge related to the 2023 escape of a Virginia Department of Corrections prisoner who was from Dale City.

The official roster for the 2024 Virginia football team was updated recently, revealing the jersey numbers for the newcomers to this year’s roster as well as a few notable jersey number changes for some of the team’s returning players.
