ACC Daily Digest, Feb. 5: Louisville wins at Tech; Tuesday hoops; 5-star Edwards cancels UNC visit, FSU still on

Let’s get right to it.

 

Sutton, Nwora lead Louisville to road win at Virginia Tech

Louisville entered Cassell Coliseum Monday night looking to avenge Saturday’s loss at UNC; against an undermanned Virginia Tech squad, the Cards did just that — winning 72-64.

Dwayne Sutton stuffed the stat sheet again: 17 points (3-4 3PA), nine rebounds and four assists. He’s really good. Christen Cunningham kicked out six assists to just one turnover; Jordan Nwora and Ryan McMahon combined for seven 3-pointers.

Without Justin Robinson, the Hokies looked relatively pedestrian on offense: 1.02 points per possession. Nickeil Alexander-Walker played all 40 minutes.
