espn.com

Virginia Tech head coach Kenny Brooks became the first Black head coach to win the ACC women's basketball tournament crown on Sunday when his 3-seed Hokies defeated the 4-seed Louisville Cardinals, 75-67.

With the win, Virginia Tech is projected to move up to the 1-line in the NCAA tournament bracket, according to ESPN bracketologist Charlie Creme.

The Hokies took down 6-seed Miami and 2-seed Duke this weekend in Greensboro prior to prevailing over the Cardinals and securing their first ACC tournament title.

Virginia Tech had never appeared in an ACC tournament championship game before Sunday. Brooks' accomplishment comes days after Notre Dame head coach Niele Ivey became the first Black coach to win the conference's regular season championship.
