BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) – Justin Bibbs scored 19 points to lead Virginia Tech to a 77-62 win over No. 7 Miami on Saturday.

Bibbs hit 7 of 10 from the floor, including five 3-pointers to lift the Hokies (18-13, 10-8 ACC) to their fifth straight win. Virginia Tech knocked off its second top-10 opponent of the season, having beaten then-No. 4 Virginia on Jan. 4.

Miami (24-6, 13-5), which had won three straight and eight of its past nine, could have assured itself a share of the ACC’s regular-season crown with a win.

The Hokies led by 13 early in the second half before Miami used a 10-2 run to cut the lead to 39-33 on a 3-pointer by Angel Rodriguez with 14:29 remaining. But the Hokies answered with a 10-2 run, getting back-to-back 3-pointers from Seth Allen and Zach LeDay to start the run.
