Get into 3 minutes and change to go in this one Collins has four it feels like Liz kitley has got to get a touch aore that’s not a bad option either George Amore does defy logic so I think they need a few more to get out of this fourth quarter with the win

The #13 Hokies defeated the #3 Wolfpack at the buzzer, 63-62, in a clash of women’s basketball titans. After NC State took an 11-point lead in the fourth quarter, Virginia Tech went on a 12-0 run to take the lead with 1:28 left in the game. Soniya Rivers’ reverse layup gave the Wolfpack a 1-point lead with 1.7 seconds left, but that was enough time for Virginia Tech to inbounds to Elizabeth Kitley for the game-winner. Kitley finished the game with 27 points and 12 rebounds. Georgia Amoore scored 18 of her 21 points in the second half. For NC State, Madison Hayes scored a career-high 21 points and grabbed nine rebounds.

  1. This was a great win for VT. NC State really missed River Baldwin's pressence though. When she is in the line up, the team is a tougher team. I don't know if Kitley dominates the paint like she did if Baldwin is in there…
    VT had a nice tournament run last year, and had alot of expectations this year. But after the UConn loss this year, I was skeptical. But this was a great win, against a great team, and it shows that if Kitley and Amoore are on and the rest of the team is playing their roles, VT can play with anyone.
