CLEMSON – Virginia Tech’s second-half cold streak enabled Clemson to maintain its hot streak.
The No. 11 Hokies went over eight minutes without a field goal late in the second half, and Clemson’s Shelton Mitchell scored a game-high 22 points as the Tigers won their fourth consecutive ACC contest in a 59-51 victory Saturday afternoon at Littlejohn Coliseum.
Clemson improves to 15-8 overall and 5-5 in the ACC (after a 1-5 start), while Virginia Tech loses consecutive games for the first time all season and falls to 18-5 overall and 7-4 in the league.
