Friday, Saturday, and Sunday were chock full of events and things going on. We know the obvious and will touch on some football things near the end, but we need to mention the other sports wrapping up seasons this week.
Hokie Soccer
Men’s
The men’s team finally ended its 2018 journey with a loss at home against JMU. We know that set of letters from football, but in soccer, JMU is a potent team with a head of steam going on. They’ll advance to their Elite Eight. Meanwhile the Hokies can enjoy a successful season, a good recruiting run, and getting ready for 2019.

Tech signs another promising recruit, Sammie London.
Thank you mom and dad, and thank you to everyone who has helped me make it to the point where I can say, without a doubt, #thisishome. Excited to announce I am officially a HOKIE! pic.twitter.com/KUJ400Afc5

These were the individual national rankings for the Hokie Grapplers. Pretty impressive slate of athletes.

Hokie Football
Coach Fuente reached his 50 win mark. It’s the 25th as a Hokie HC! What a way to get it, too.
CONGRATS, COACH ❗

Friday's victory marked the 50th career victory for Coach Fuente.
He's aiming for his 25th win at @Virginia_Tech on Saturday vs. Marshall. #Hokies pic.twitter.com/2md7dfrDd9
There is little doubt that Tre Turner probably deserved the biggest game ball for his amazing performance on offense and special teams.

You remember who did the 3rd quarter hype gig, right? The one and only... Sam Rogers
THIS IS OUR STATE ❗

Still would rather them put back the Hokie Poky. We could still have Sam (and other famous guests) doing the pump up, but only after doing the Hokie Poky with the tuba sections. I miss that.
And yes, I was there... numb.. in agony... and not noticing it at all. I had camera in hand and the pictures will be forth coming. Again, over 3,000 and lots of really cool shots to show you.
