Virginia Beats Arizona State 57-55 in Women’s First Four

On Thursday, Virginia defeated Arizona State 57-55 in the NCAA Tournament First Four, securing its first win since 2018.
Kymora Johnson scored 17 points with 10 rebounds and five assists, while Virginia received bench help from Caitlin Weimar.
Johnson's late 3-pointer, Virginia's first second-half field goal in 10 attempts, made it 54-51; she added 1 of 2 free throws with 5.3 seconds left as Jyah LoVett lost control.
The win marked Virginia's first NCAA Tournament victory since 2018 and its first 20-win season since 2017, with Arizona State returning under first-year coach Molly Miller.
Looking ahead to Saturday, Virginia will face seventh-seeded and 24th-ranked Georgia, which had the best single-season turnaround after going 13-19 last year and is making its 37th NCAA appearance.
