Virginia out-hit Virginia Tech .173-.167 on the night, but the 19-point discrepancy in the service game was too much.

Sarah Billiard and Jayna Francis led Virginia (1-3, 0-3 ACC) with 12 kills each.

Alex Spencer set a career high with 27 digs in the loss.

Virginia Tech (4-1, 3-1 ACC) was paced by 17 kills from Kaity Smith and another 13 from Marisa Cerchio.
