The Orange (10-4, 7-4 ACC) won the first meeting of the season on Jan. 28, 80-57. 'Cuse outscored the Panthers 27-12 in the final frame to secure its 46th win in program history over Pitt.

Syracuse head coach Quentin Hillsman has a 19-3 record against Pitt during his 15-year tenure.Â
Syracuse is led offensively by Kamilla Cardoso (14.8 ppg) and Kiara Lewis (13.7 ppg).
