HEAD COACH MEGAN DUFFY

A proven winner, Duffy has averaged 22 victories per season as a head coach, boasting an impressive 70% winning percentage. She has led her teams to the postseason in seven of her eight seasons at the helm, including in her inaugural campaign in Blacksburg. The cornerstone of Duffy’s success in year one at Virginia Tech was her commitment to player development. Several players made significant strides in performance throughout the season, highlighted by Matilda Ekh and Rose Micheaux who continued their basketball journeys professionally after graduation.

That development translated into on-court success as the Hokies won 19 games, including defeating previously undefeated and thirteenth-ranked Georgia Tech. Duffy also guided the team to nine ACC wins, the most for a first year Virginia Tech head coach, earning the eight seed at the conference tournament in Greensboro. The season concluded with an appearance in the WBIT.
