The No. 14 Virginia women’s basketball team topped Clemson last night 75-67. The Tigers were led by junior forward Lele Hardy, who tallied 17 points. The Cavaliers (16-4, 3-2 ACC) had three players match or better Hardy’s scoring pace: senior center Aisha Mohammed with 17, junior guard Monica Wright with 19 and senior forward Lyndra Littles with 22.
Virginia out-rebounded Clemson 49-35, including 11 from Mohammed, who put up her seventh double-double of the season.
Wright and Littles remain first and second in scoring per game among all ACC players. Mohammed trails only three players in rebounds per game, including Hardy, who totaled eight boards for the Tigers.
Virginia kicks off a four-game homestand Friday against Maryland. The game against the Terrapins is scheduled to tip off at 7 p.m. in John Paul Jones Arena.
