The Hokies held Louisville star Hailey Van Lith to just 12 points. Chrislyn Carr did score 27 points, but it wasn’t enough for Louisville to overcome Virginia Tech.
Virginia Tech is expected to be a high seed in the NCAA Tournament. According to ESPN’s Charlie Creme
, the Hokies are currently projected to be a No. 2 seed. Creme’s projection has 8 ACC teams in the field, which is higher than any other conference.
This will be Virginia Tech’s 3rd consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance. However, the Hokies have not reached the Sweet 16 since 1999.
