Hokies Set to Host Seminoles in a Valentine's Day Showdown at Cassell Coliseum

As the Virginia Tech Hokies prepare to welcome the Florida State Seminoles on February 14th, fans are eager to see if their team can continue their impressive performance streak. The Hokies have been showcasing a strong game recently, with notable statistics that should worry any opponent.

In their last three games at Cassell Coliseum, the Hokies have demonstrated an ability to control both ends of the court. Their offensive efficiency has been particularly eye-catching; they shot an astounding 64 percent from the field against American and maintained over 40 percent in subsequent games against Vermont and Valparaiso. Their two-point shooting has consistently stayed above 50 percent, which could spell trouble for the Seminoles' defense.


Defensively, Virginia Tech has been just as formidable. They've out-rebounded their opponents significantly in each game and kept turnovers low, indicating disciplined play and strong defensive pressure. With an average assist-to-turnover ratio well above one across these matches, it's clear that teamwork is a cornerstone of their strategy.

The upcoming match promises to be an exciting one with Virginia Tech showing no signs of slowing down its high-powered offense or its suffocating defense. Fans can expect another thrilling game as they look forward to cheering on their team at Cassell Coliseum.


The Valentine's Day clash is scheduled for February 14th at 2:00 AM Eastern Time at Cassell Coliseum in Blacksburg, VA. For those unable to attend in person, you can catch all the action live on ESPN Networks.
