•The Hokies are 3-11 on the road against the Hurricanes.
•Coach Brooks is 5-5 overall against the Canes and has guided the Hokies to five consecutive victories over Miami dating back to 2019.

•In last season's meeting, the Hokies won 70-63 at home behind a double-double from Elizabeth Kitley (18 & 12), 16 points from Aisha Sheppard and 12 points from Emily Lytle off the bench.
A WIN WOULD…
•Move the Hokies to 4-2 in ACC play this season and mark a three-game winning streak in conference play. Extend the Hokies' winning streak over the Canes to six games.
HOKIES FINDING PRODUCTION FROM EVERYWHERE
•VT is the only team in the ACC to feature more than three athletes that have recorded a double-double this season. The Hokies have had five record one or more: Elizabeth Kitley (9), D'asia Gregg (2), Georgia Amoore (1), Taylor Soule (1), Kayana Traylor (1).
DOUBLE DOUBLE-DOUBLES
•Against UVA both D'asia Gregg (10-10) and Taylor Soule (18-10) recorded double-doubles.
•They became the first VT teammates to accomplish the feat in conference play since Feb. 20, 2020 (Elizabeth Kitley and Taja Cole).
•Soule's 10 rebounds are a season-high as were her seven defensive rebounds. It was the first time this season that she registered more defensive rebounds that offensive boards.
