Ohio State to Face Virginia Tech in NIT Second Round Under New Coach Diebler
Ohio State Buckeyes are set to match up against the Virginia Tech Hokies in the second round of the NIT tournament, marking a significant game under the leadership of their new head coach, Jake Diebler.
The Ohio State team, seeded No. 2, will welcome the No. 3 seed Virginia Tech to their home court at Value City Arena for what promises to be an exciting matchup.
Virginia Tech secured their spot in this game with a solid 74-58 victory over Richmond, showcasing their strength and determination on the court.
Despite the game being a high-stakes showdown, it will not be aired on ESPN‘s main networks due to scheduling conflicts with the NCAA women’s tournament, limiting broadcasting slots for the NIT game.
Ohio State and Virginia Tech last faced off on November 28, 2005, with the Buckeyes emerging victorious with a 69-59 win at the Value City Arena, setting the stage for a compelling rematch.
