CLEMSON — Virginia Tech came into Littlejohn Coliseum on Tuesday night and handed Clemson just its second home loss of the season.

The No. 20 Tigers fell 76-66 to the Hokies in a game that saw Brad Brownell’s team never lead in the second half. The Hokies were lights out from beyond the arc, shooting 52 percent, but just as importantly, their guards defended well, keeping Clemson from ever finding its stroke from the perimeter.

Virginia Tech head coach Mike Young was thrilled with his team’s effort in securing a Quad 1 win on the road.

“I think the story of the game was we guarded well in the second half,” Young said.
