Virginia Tech Invitational News And Notes

Rector Fieldhouse is ground zero for the two day meet

Track and Field: NCAA Championships Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

This weekend Virginia Tech is hosting a really big track and field event. The Virginia Tech Invitational takes place at Rector Field House, and hosts several top track teams from the A.C.C. and beyond. Teams from Army, Charlotte, Concord, Elon, High Point, Miami, N.C. A&T, Radford, UNCG, Wake Forest, Clemson, and Virginia will all be competing against the Hokies. There were some great performances on Friday from some Hokies, including Arlicia Bush, who won her freshman debut in the 500 meter dash. The talented athlete won easily, by almost two seconds.

Rachel Procratsky also took home a first place win in the 1000M race.

All in all, it was a very successful day for the men’s and ladies’ teams. The meet continues tomorrow at Rector Field House. Please go out and support the track and field team, as they try to build on the day one success and win the meet.
