The NC A&T Aggies are gearing up to take on the Virginia Tech Hokies on Thursday evening at Cassell Coliseum, with the action set to tip off at 7:00 p.m. ET.
The Aggies began their season on a positive note, winning three of their first five outings. Their only early losses came against Wake Forest and George Washington. However, their fortunes have taken a nosedive with four consecutive defeats, falling to Buffalo, East Carolina, Hampton, and UNC Greensboro.
The Hokies, on the other hand, opened the season strong with three straight wins but have since hit a slump. They've been unable to secure a victory since November 11, enduring losses to Penn State, Jacksonville, Michigan, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, and Pittsburgh.
