Virginia Tech defeated Ohio State on Monday, advancing to the NCAA women's basketball Final Four. The Buckeyes' last Final Four trip was in 1993.
SEATTLE — Thirty years after its first, and so far only, trip to the Final Four, Ohio State won't be heading back., the Buckeyes advanced past the Sweet 16 for the first time since being the national championship runner-up in 1993. But in Monday's Elite Eight game against Virginia Tech at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Ohio State came up 10 points short as the Hokies won 84-74.
Senior guard Taylor Mikesell, who scored just 9 points on Saturday and was visibly not 100% healthy, made her first five attempts from beyond the arc and missed just one shot in the first half. Mikesell scored 19 points in the first half, but finished with 25 as she struggled to score in the second half.
Despite forcing the turnover, though, the Buckeyes weren't able to capitalize and score. They turned the ball over right back, and after two chaotic possessions, two free throws from Virginia Tech forward D'asia Gregg and a deep 3-pointer from Amoore just before the buzzer gave the Hokies an eight-point lead, 63-55.
