UVa-Ga. Tech final

UVa has now lost five of six games after dropping a 90-82 overtime affair Sunday against visiting Georgia Tech.

In its last three losses, Virginia has squandered leads of nine, 10 and 13 points, including a 48-35 advantage late in the first half Sunday.

The Cavaliers went nine-of-18 on 3-pointers in the first half, then went 2-of-14 in the second half. Two-time first-team All-ACC selection Sean Singletary missed all six of his 3-point shots and was 5-of-19 from the field.

Singletary is 9-of-30 from the field in his last two games, including a 69-67 loss Wednesday at Florida State.

After going 24-2 in its first 26 games at John Paul Jones Arena, Virginia has lost two of its last three games, both in overtime to a pair of Techs, including Virginia Tech (70-69).

The Cavaliers (11-7, 1-4) dropped deep into the ACC cellar, of which they already had sole possession. Georgia Tech is 10-9, 3-3 after its second ACC road victory in five days.
