Julia Cuozzo emerging as Virginia’s steady right-handed arm
After an injury-hit freshman year, Cuozzo took a clear step forward in 2025, going 5-2 with a 2.94 ERA over 52.1 innings while holding opponents to a .216 average and striking out 41. She looks like a useful fit for a staff needing stability: she can work deep enough to matter, has already been trusted in starts and relief, and has shown she can compete in big spots, including a combined no-hitter against Syracuse. The main appeal is upside plus resilience—she’s not just back, she’s becoming dependable.[1][2]
