Energy, inconsistency and early injuries. This is the story surrounding the women’s basketball season, which ended after a second-round exit in the ACC Tournament against Virginia Tech.
The team entered the season with high energy and high hopes, looking to improve on its lackluster performance from the preceding season. However, its 2020-21 campaign was interrupted just one day before the start of the start of the season. Senior guard and leader of the team Mykea Gray would miss the season due to an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury sustained during practice.
With Gray out, the team looked to fall on fellow senior guards Endia Banks, Taylor Mason and Kelsey Marshall to lead the team to a winning record.
