What Louisville Head Coach Pat Kelsey Said After 71-66 Victory at Virginia Tech

BLACKSBURG, Va. – It wasn’t the prettiest performance, but it was still a win.

After a fast start against Virginia Tech, the Louisville men’s basketball team had to fight to hold on for a 71-66 victory. Despite the struggle, they managed to come out on top, leaving Cassell Coliseum with the win.

“Virginia Tech deserves a lot of credit. I have a great deal of respect for Mike Young… Every time you play against him, it feels like you’re being dissected. He’s an incredible tactician. His players play with a lot of effort. I thought they really battled us tonight. We don’t often get outworked on the boards, but they beat us there. So, a big tip of the cap to them.”

Louisville shot 45.2% from the field, but struggled with three-pointers, hitting only 6 of 23. Virginia Tech shot 43.1%, but made 11 of 26 from beyond the arc. Four Cardinals scored in double figures, with Chucky Hepburn leading the way with 15 points.

“I give our players a lot of credit for being resilient, gritty, and tough because that’s exactly what kind of game it was,” Kelsey said. “I like to think that good teams find a way to win those kinds of games. We haven’t been in many close, situational games like that recently, so it was really good for us.”

Here’s what Kelsey shared after the win:
