CORAL GABLES, Fla. – The University of Miami women’s basketball team will conclude its regular season road slate Thursday at Virginia Tech.
No. 17/17 Miami (19-7, 8-6 ACC) will square off with the Hokies at 7 p.m., at Cassell Coliseum in Blacksburg, Va.
The Hurricanes are 17-6 all-time against Virginia Tech, winning each of the past 11 meetings, good for its longest active winning streak against any ACC opponent. Earlier this year, Miami handed then-No. 15/16 Virginia Tech its first loss of the year, earning an 82-75 home victory on Jan. 11 behind a quintet of double-digit scorers.
In its most recent outing, Miami dropped an 83-70 decision at No. 13/14 Duke Sunday in Durham, N.C. Senior guard Adrienne Motley paced the Hurricanes with a season-high 23 points in the game.
After starting 15-0 before dropping its first game of the year against Miami, Virginia Tech is now 16-11 (3-11 ACC) and enters Thursday’s contest on a 10-game losing streak. Sophomore guard Chanette Hicks paces the Hokies in points (15.8), assists (5.1) and steals (3.7) per game.
Following an 18-14 (5-11) campaign in 2015-16, Virginia Tech was tabbed No. 12 in this year’s ACC preseason poll.
