Florida Gulf Coast overcomes Kitley, Virginia Tech 84-81 After yet another basket by Elizabeth Kitley, Florida Gulf Coast coach Karl Smesko had finally seen enough. He made a defensive adjustment. “At the beginning of the fourth quarter they kept going into her, and I kept yelling at the other end what to do, and I’m sure they didn’t hear me,” Smesko said. “And I’m thinking, boy, this game is going to be tight at the end. I hate to waste a timeout. But I don’t think it would have been wasting a timeout. By the time we were able to get together, make the adjustment, we were able to force a couple turnovers on the post entry.” FGCU never really stopped Kitley, but the 12th-seeded Eagles slowed her down enough toward the end to oust fifth-seeded Virginia Tech 84-81 on Friday in the women’s NCAA Tournament. The 6-foot-6 Kitley scored a career-high 42 points. FGCU still advanced. read more https://apnews.com/article/march-ma...irginia-tech-5011db3cd6db925520e221b41bf65f44
