Yellow Jackets welcome Gators to McCamish Pavilion on Nov. 29
THE FLATS – Georgia Tech women’s basketball will host Florida on Wednesday, Nov. 29 in the inaugural ACC/SEC Women’s Basketball Challenge, the respective conferences and ESPN announced on Wednesday. Tipoff is set for 5 p.m. and the game will be televised live on an ESPN network (network designation TBA).
Despite their relatively close proximity, the ACC/SEC Challenge matchup between Georgia Tech and Florida will be only the second meeting in series history and the first in 37 years. In the only previous matchup, the Yellow Jackets downed the Gators, 82-72, on Dec. 5, 1986 in Atlanta.
No stranger to squaring off against SEC foes, Georgia Tech has claimed at least one win over an SEC opponent in three of its four seasons under head coach Nell Fortner (the only exception being the Covid-19-shortened 2020-21 campaign). Last season, the Yellow Jackets earned a 57-51 win at Auburn.
2023-24 Georgia Tech women’s basketball tickets will go on sale in the near future.
