Vermont, which is at the northern end of the Appalachians, came Southwest for a chance to make the Hokies’ home stand a bit lest happy. It didn’t work out the way that they wanted.
The game started off with a huge Florida roar from Hunter Catoor who drained a three to open the scoring, and Tech never looked back. The team led from tip to the final buzzer, and even with Vermont finally getting past the 30-point mark a third of the way through the second half, the Hokies had already lit the afterburner enough that they maintained an average 20-point lead from the halfway point of the first half.
