Wake Forest dealt a blow to Virginia Tech’s tournament hopes with an OT win.

Myles Colvin scored 18 points as Wake Forest beat bubble team Virginia Tech 95-89 in overtime in the first round of the ACC Tournament on Tuesday night in Charlotte, North Carolina.

This first-round game between the No. 12 Hokies (19-13) and the No. 13 seed Demon Deacons (17-15) was the 50th overtime game in ACC Tournament history. Wake will face No. 5 seed Clemson on Wednesday at 9:30 PM ET.

Colvin also had six rebounds and was one of seven players to score in double figures for Wake. Sebastian Akins had 14 points, Tre’Von Spillers and Mekhi Mason had 13 each, and Juke Harris, Cooper Schwieger and Nate Calmese had 10 each.

This loss could be what puts the Hokies out of the NCAA Tournament field. That’s because the Hokies were projected to be a bubble team by many bracket experts heading into this week. Ban Hammond led Virginia Tech with 23 points, Jailen Bedford had 17 points and eight rebounds and Tobi Lawal had 12 points and nine boards.

Wake Forest led by as many as 7 points in the second half. To send the game to overtime, Virginia Tech broke a 10-3 run capped by a 3-pointer from Bedford to tie the game at 71 with less than three minutes to go.

After the Hokies and Demon Deacons traded free throws late, both teams had a chance to win in regulation. Mason attempted an airball 3-pointer for the wake, and Hammond’s floater in the lane missed the mark just before the buzzer.

With 57 seconds left in overtime, Akins sank a 14-foot floater while being fouled and then knocked down a free throw to extend Wake’s lead to 89-85. Virginia Tech tried to attack again, but Cooper Schwiger’s steal and two free throws with 8 seconds left sealed the win for Wake Forest.

Virginia Tech won the rebounding battle 45-28, but Wake shot 50.8 percent from the floor, knocked down 27 free throws and had 18 points off the Hokies’ 13 turnovers.
