Hokies Football

There was something different about the team last season that most folks really didn’t notice; injuries slacked off, and inside speed and control improved. See this from David Hale from the 2018 season.

The Hokies dominated inside and behind the line because of behind the scenes sorts of work by coaches who are rarely given notice. Someone really needs to notice the difference that Coach Hilgart and his fitness and nutrition program have done for the entire team. This includes the inside guys.

Seems the Hokies are starting to really understand how important he’s been to the program since 2016.
