Virginia Tech's Elizabeth Kitley to Miss ACC Tournament Due to Injury

The three-time ACC Player of the Year's knee injury poses a challenge for the Hokies ahead of the NCAA tournament.

Virginia Tech's star center Elizabeth Kitley will miss the ACC tournament due to a knee injury sustained in the season finale against Virginia.
Kitley, a three-time ACC Player of the Year, has been a key player for Virginia Tech, averaging 22.8 points and 11.4 rebounds per game this season.
Her absence is a significant blow to the Hokies, who are currently projected to be a No. 3 seed in the NCAA tournament.
Freshman Clara Stack will start in Kitley's place, having averaged three points and four rebounds in 12 minutes per game this season.
Kitley's injury status will be re-evaluated after the ACC tournament, with hopes for her return in time for the NCAA tournament.
