After opening the season with wins over Charleston Southern and Providence, the Virginia Tech men's basketball team faces another challenge on Wednesday night when Saint Joseph's visits Cassell Coliseum. The Hokies will be looking for a bit of revenge after losing last season's game on the road right before ACC play began.

Virginia Tech enters off a thrilling 107-101 overtime win over the Friars on Saturday afternoon at Mohegan Sun. Freshman Neoklis Avdalas opened a lot of eyes with 33 points, five rebounds, and six assists in the victory. West Virginia transfer Amani Hansberry recorded his second double-double for the Hokies with 17 points and 11 rebounds, including a huge 3-pointer in overtime.
