Virginia Tech star Elizabeth Kitley will miss this week’s Atlantic Coast Conference tournament due to a knee injury.
The three-time ACC Player of the Year injured the knee during Sunday’s regular-season finale against Virginia. She sat out Friday’s ACC quarterfinal matchup against Miami, which the Hokies won 55-47.
“Unfortunately, she won’t be able to participate in this year’s ACC tournament,” Hokies coach Kenny Brooks said on the Virginia Tech Sports Network. “Her health and her safety is the main concern of ours over any kind of game. We are going to sit her this weekend and then re-evaluate next week.”
Kitley, a two-time All-American, is averaging 22.8 points and 11.4 rebounds and has blocked 60 shots for Virginia Tech, who improved to 24-6 with Friday’s victory.
