The 1989 Virginia Cavaliers men's soccer team represented the University of Virginia during the 1989 NCAA Division I men's soccer season. The Cavaliers, playing their 49th season of existence, won their first ever national championship, which was a co-title with Santa Clara. It was often considered[by whom?] the start to the Cavaliers' early 1990s dynasty run in college soccer.
