Virginia Tech Hokie Baseball Struggling in ACC Competition but Still Winning in Non-Conference Play
It has certainly been a tough season for the Hokies in the ACC this year. The team is extremely young after being eviscerated by the MLB Draft and graduations and learning to win close games is still a challenge. No worries, Coach Szefc is an excellent teacher. GO HOKIES!!!

It was a Tough Two Weekends for Virginia Tech Hokies Baseball: 1-5 in the ACC
The Hokies play at home against VMI after a really brutal two weekends and a postponed game at ETSU. Hokies drop a split series against Boston College, 1-2, and then get swept in Coral Gables against Miami. Birds need to get their feet back underneath before calling on Pitt. GO HOKIES!!!

Virginia Tech Hokies Advance to the 2nd Round, Win over UT-Chattanooga: 58-33
Cassell Coliseum was rocking, the Hokies had to tone down the "Hokie" stuff because Tech was playing host to the first and second rounds of the NCAA Tournament. That didn’t stop the fans, though. And it didn’t phase the Hokies, either. Big 58-33 defensive blanket for this one. GO HOKIES!!!
Virginia Tech Hokies Baseball Drops Their ACC Opening Series with Boston College: 1-2
It started out great, with an emphatic win on Friday, but bad weather and a double header on Saturday, March 11th combined with short rest from the 2 mid-week games flamed out the Hokies bats and cooled off their pitching. Miami is up next in Coral Gables. GO HOKIES!!!
