ATLANTA - Iasia Hemingway scored 17 points and Alex Montgomery had 16 in Georgia Tech's 74-66 victory over No. 22 Virginia on Sunday.

The Lady Yellow Jackets (21-8, 8-6 Atlantic Coast Conference) closed the regular season with three straight wins and clinched the fifth seed in next week's ACC tournament at Greensboro, N.C.

Ending a three-game winning streak, Virginia (22-8, 8-6) will play as the ACC's sixth seed. Lyndra Littles led the Cavaliers with 21 points. Monica Wright had 18.

The Cavaliers, who committed a season-high 28 turnovers against a Georgia Tech defense that leads the nation in average steals, went nearly nine minutes without scoring after Littles' layup cut the lead to six with 9:32 remaining.
Brigitte Ardossi finished with 12 points and nine rebounds for Georgia Tech, which broke a two-game losing streak to Virginia and improved to 10-51 against the Cavaliers.
