In a heartbreaking finale to a disappointing season, Tech’s men’s basketball team crashed out of the ACC tournament with an opening round loss to Louisville on March 8.
The game started well in Brooklyn’s Barclays Center with the Jackets claiming a 9-3 lead in the first four minutes. This lead would quickly evaporate, and Louisville went on a furious 42-19 run over the rest of the first half to push the Jacket season to the brink.
The halftime reset did little to stem the tide of the game, and Louisville would swell their lead to 27 with 12 minutes left in the second half.
