One day after upsetting No. 3 Villanova, the Virginia Tech Hokies were back in action on the hardwood at the Mohegan Sun Arena in “Bubbleville.”
This time, the opponent was the 1-1 South Florida Bulls.
This was a major test for head coach Mike Young’s team in the sense could Tech avoid a letdown after such an emotional win less than 24 hours ago?
The Hokies answered the call, defeating USF 76-58 on Sunday evening.
The game was tight early, with both teams going back and forth before the Hokies ripped off a 15-5 run before intermission to take a commanding 36-23 lead going into the break.
