The shooting stats for Virginia Tech were even more gaudy in the first 20 minutes, when it connected on 18 of 27 shots (66.7 percent) overall and 11 of 14 (78.6 percent) from three-point range.

NEW YORK — Whether it was because of the Huskies’ new zone defense is hard to tell, but the difference in shooting percentages Friday night between Washington and Virginia Tech was clear as day.

The Hokies connected on 60 percent of their shots (30 for 50), and 68.2 percent from three-point range (15 for 22) in rolling to a 103-79 men’s basketball victory over the Huskies in the consolation game of the 2K Classic in Madison Square Garden.
