They defeated Miami in the quarterfinals of the ACC Tournament and advanced to the championship game after Virginia was forced to withdraw from the tournament after a positive COVID-19 test.[1] They defeated Florida State to win the tournament championship.[2] As a result, they received the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament as the No. 9 seed in the Midwest region.[3] They lost in the First Round to Loyola.[4]
