Women’s Basketball season ends in March

In the milestone 50th anniversary of women’s basketball here at Tech, head coach Nell Fortner’s Jackets finished the season with a first-round exit in the NCAA tournament. Despite the disappointing blowout loss against the number eight seeded Richmond Spiders 74-49, this loss does not paint an adequate picture of the season where the Jackets finished with a record of 22-11, their best record percentage-wise since 2011.

Some of the many accolades included the best opening start in history (15-0), along with multiple individual ACC honors among Tech’s stellar guards. Freshman guard Dani Carnegie earned a spot on the ACC all-freshman team along with winning the ACC Sixth Player of the Year award, junior guard Kara Dunn notched a first-team All-ACC selection, and junior guard Tonie Morgan received second-team honors.
