The Georgia Tech women’s basketball team received a bid to the Women’s NIT Monday night and drew a familiar opponent. The Yellow Jackets will play Mercer Thursday at McCamish Pavilion.
Tech has played the Bears 20 times in school history, most recently in the 2010-11 season. Tech has won 14 of the meetings, including each of the past seven.
“We are excited about the opportunity to play in the postseason,” coach MaChelle Joseph said in a statement. “Our seniors deserve to continue playing and this is a great experience for our 11 returners. We are playing really good basketball in March and look forward to our next matchup.
