It’s March 24, and Virginia Tech women’s basketball is still dancing.
The Hokies knocked off Penn State in the third round of the WNIT on Thursday night by a score of 64-55, thanks to a balanced scoring effort and stout second quarter. Five Virginia Tech players finished in double figures, with Chanette Hicks scoring a team-high 13 points. Samantha Hill and Vanessa Panousis scored 12 points, while Sidney Cook and Kendyl Brooks scored 11 a piece.
The second period proved to be Penn State’s downfall. The Nittany Lions scored just four points in the quarter, while allowing 17 points. Virginia Tech took a 37-17 lead into halftime and held off Penn State for the rest of the game.
Virginia Tech women’s basketball will play Michigan in the Elite Eight on Saturday at 2 p.m. The game will be played in Ann Arbor.
Maybe one of those mental things when, after dropping the NCAA game, first you get mad, then you say, screw it, let’s go out and play ball. And they are doing just that. Keep it up!
Keep up the good work, ladies. Very proud of you
Keep on dancing ramma ramma ding dong!
