Virginia Tech center Elizabeth Kitley named ACC women’s player of the year

It’s been a banner year for the Virginia Tech women’s basketball team. The Hokies finished in a three-way tie for third place in the ACC with a 13-5 conference record and 21-8 overall. The Hokies almost took down top-seeded N.C. State Sunday in Cassell Coliseum but came up two points short in the end.

With such team success, also means individual success, too. On Tuesday, one Hokie received the highest individual honor in the ACC when junior center Elizabeth Kitley was named ACC women’s player of the year.

She is the first Virginia Tech woman to be named ACC player of the year.
