No. 13 Virginia Hosts Virginia Tech After Lawal's 20-Point Game

The in-state rivalry sees No. 13 Virginia seek revenge against Virginia Tech after their Dec. 31 clash, intensifying stakes in the ongoing Commonwealth Clash series.

  • On Saturday, No. 13 Virginia Cavaliers host Virginia Tech Hokies in Charlottesville at 12 p.m. EST for their 162nd meeting, with Virginia Tech winning 95-85 on Dec. 31.
  • After a fierce first matchup, Virginia center Johann Grönloh became acquainted with the Commonwealth Clash, while regional coverage called this matchup 'the biggest game of the year' for Virginia Tech.
  • Virginia is shooting 46.1% this season and leads the ACC with 11.8 offensive rebounds, with Johann Grönloh averaging 2.5 offensive rebounds, while Virginia Tech averages 8.6 made 3-pointers and shoots 44.7% with Jacari White at 44.4% from deep and nine points.
  • According to ESPN bracketologist Joe Lunardi, Virginia Tech sits among the first four out, and a win would bolster their NCAA Tournament bubble case, while a loss could require a deep run in next week's ACC Tournament.
  • Having last won at JPJ on Feb. 1, 2025, Virginia Tech has won three of the last four meetings in the series, which began long ago.
