Hokie Football

The drumbeat for heads to roll is brutal and very disappointing. This program is beat up and playing with lots of heart at a serious talent and experience deficit every time they take the field, now. Coach Fuente goes over the ramp up in preparation for heading out to Pitt.

Wrestling

The grapplers started off with a really solid outing in the Hokie Open held in Roanoke at Beruglund Center. Some really nice individual efforts are noted for Mitch Moore and Gold Medalist Mekhi Lewis.

It was a really solid effort for a kick starter to the season.

Around Virginia Tech

The Virginia Tech Campus was rated #2 in one of those who’s your whatis sorts of rating things. But we all knew how wonderful it is, didn’t we?
