As a freshman with the Cavaliers, Sborz mainly pitched out of the bullpen. He made 30 appearances for Virginia, which was the 10th most in team history. Sborz joined the UVA rotation during his sophomore season and made 15 starts. He started Game 3 of the College World Series finals against Vanderbilt.
For his junior season, Sborz was moved back to the bullpen and was named the team's closer.
