On Wednesday night against Wake Forest, the Hokies played a poor first half and an incredible second half to beat the Demon Deacons, 99-90.
On Thursday night, the script was flipped. The Hokies hit six first half three pointers, while Florida State hit none, helping the Hokies to a narrow 35-33 halftime lead, despite the Seminoles holding a +7 advantage on the glass.
In the second half, the Hokies continued to battle, but when Zach LeDay picked up his fourth foul with just over nine minutes to play, Florida State pounced on the opportunity to take control of the game with Tech’s best offensive player on the bench.
