Up until this past week with their tournament peer opener in the Bahamas, (Baha Mar Hoops Pink Flamingo Championship) the Hokie Women’s Basketball team had not faced a peer program this season. That had been sort of a minor irritant to some sports analyst types as they gauged how they were going to talk about and vote on the Hokies. Well, maybe the next poll that comes out will be a bit more interested.
The Hokies had already played a tight game with Kentucky as they held on to an early massive lead to grind out the final three of four to prevail 82-74.
