UVA advances to 23-2, 11-2 in the ACC

BLACKSBURG, Va. – No. 3 Virginia took down No. 20 Virginia Tech on Monday night 64-58, in the latest edition of the Commonwealth clash on the hardwoods. 

Kyle Guy scored 23 points to lead the Cavaliers. It's Guy's third consecutive game scoring 20 or more points. He was 8 of 15 from the field and 6 of 13 from three-point range. Ty Jerome added 16 points as UVA moves to 23-2, 11-2 in the ACC.
