The 2024–25 Virginia Tech Hokies women's basketball team represented Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University during the 2024–25 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Hokies were led by first-year head coach Megan Duffy and played their home games at Cassell Coliseum in Blacksburg, Virginia as members of the Atlantic Coast Conference. Duffy entered her first season after being hired to replace Kenny Brooks on April 3, 2024.
The Hokies won five out of their first six games before the Thanksgiving tournament. Their only loss was a neutral-site game against Iowa 71–52. The only other Power-4 conference team they played during this stretch was Rutgers, whom they defeated 91–80. The Hokies then traveled to Florida where they participated in the Fort Myers Tip-Off. They went 1–1 in the event, defeating Davidson and losing to Michigan. They then won their ACC–SEC Challenge game over Georgia, 70–61 in Athens. The Hokies lost to Duke in their ACC opener, as well as their first game against a ranked opponent. Duke was ranked eighth at the time of their meeting. Virginia Tech rounded out their non-conference schedule with two wins before a New Year's break. Upon return in January, they lost to Florida State, before winning their next three ACC games. The highlight of the three game winning streak, was handing thirteenth ranked Georgia Tech their first loss of the season in double-overtime. Their winning streak ended with a rivalry loss to Virginia. The Hokies struggled to string together wins after that, going 3–3 over their next six games. They only faced two ranked teams in this stretch, losing to both number twenty NC State and number three Notre Dame. They went 3–3 in their last six ACC games, defeating Virginia, California, and Clemson on the final day of the season. They lost to twelfth-ranked North Carolina, and suffered overtime losses to both Stanford and Boston College.
The Hokies finished the season 19–13 overall and 9–9 in ACC play to finish in a tie for tenth place. As the eighth seed in the ACC tournament, they lost to ninth-seed Georgia Tech in the Second Round. They received an at-large bid to the WBIT and were the first seed in their section of the bracket. They defeated un-seeded North Carolina A&T before losing to also un-seeded Texas Tech 69–59 to end their season.
