🔼 Mustang Tamers. A dominant effort on both sides of the court led the Virginia Tech women’s hoops squad to a third straight win on Thursday night with a 79-42 defeat of SMU in Dallas.

Kilah Freelon and Samyha Suffren each scored 18 points apiece to lead the way, with Freelon coming just one rebound short of a double-double with nine boards in the contest.

The Hokies defense was stifling, limiting the Mustangs to just 22.2-percent from the field and forcing 22 turnovers on the night. Virginia Tech also owned the glass, pulling down 50 rebounds, including 17 offensive boards.
