PITTSBURGH — The Pitt Panthers completed their regular season with a dominant, 93-67 victory over Boston College at the Petersen Events Center.

Pitt ended a four game losing streak with this win, which includes road losses to Notre Dame, 76-72 on Feb. 22, No. 19 Louisville, 79-68 on March 1 and 71-63 to NC State on March 5, plus a home defeat to Georgia Tech, 73-67 on Feb. 25.

The Panthers end their regular season with a 17-14 and 8-12 in the ACC, earning a spot in the First Round of the ACC Tournament, playing on March 12.

He praised his team for their performance, as they shot 50% from the field and 40% from 3-point range and also jumped out to a 48-19 lead at halftime.

Capel finally spoke on the impact his seniors had on the program, as the Panthers honored senior guard Ishmael Leggett, redshirt senior forward Zack Austin and junior forward/former walk-on Vason Stevenson.
