- I found this reflection from #Hokies forward Tobi Lawal interesting after yesterday's season-ending loss to Cal. The VCU transfer averaged 12.4 points per game and seven rebounds per game during his first season in Blacksburg.
- Elizabeth Kitley, Cayla King and Carleigh Wenzel (who announced today she's staying with the #Hokies next year) were here at Tech Softball Park a few minutes ago. They got an ovation as they walked out.
- The #Hokies have played seven softball games this season. They have yet to surrender a run. They have only given up eight hits in 39 innings.
- A big part of Brent Pry's appeal to the #Hokies was his promise to improve Tech's recruiting in-state. Securing a commitment from Gerard Johnson -- a four-star defensive end who On3 ranks the No. 1 recruit in Virginia -- helps a lot.
- Athletes Unlimited softball just announced #Hokies pitcher Emma Lemley would be drafted to one of its four teams in May.
00:00 - The #Hokies are off to Alabama for the Tuscaloosa Regional. They’ll play Belmont on Friday at 3:30 p.m. on ESPN+.
00:00 - Tech Softball Park listed capacity: 1,024 Friday's attendance: 1,246 Saturday's attendance: 1, 413 Sunday's attendance: 1,346 #HokiesAnother full house of #Hokies fans at Tech Softball Park this afternoon. The listed attendance for the past two days was several hundred above capacity, and will be again today.
00:00 - Here’s Kenny Brooks walking off after his GameDay hit, with thousands of people chanting his name. #Hokies
00:00 - Emma Lemley is the first #Hokies pitcher to throw multiple no-hitters against ranked teams. She threw one against No. 21 Northwestern on Feb. 14 and another against No. 24 Liberty this evening.
- Not a surprise, but the #Hokies will be headed to Chestnut Hill for the ACC Tournament. They currently sit tied for first in the conference with a 13-1 record.𝙃𝙀𝙍𝙀 𝘾𝙊𝙈𝙀 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙃𝙊𝙆𝙄𝙀𝙎 🦃 @HokiesSoftball has clinched their spot to the 2025 ACC Softball Championship! 🎟️ buy now: theacc.co/25SBtix
- #Hokies fans waited over an hour for Elizabeth Kitley and Georgia Amoore to complete their media obligations so they could sign autographs. Carleigh Wenzel walked by where Amoore was signing and started a “one more year” chant.
00:00 - Keely Rochard Sudberry’s between-the-legs ceremonial first pitch went right down the middle. #Hokies
00:00 - Athletes Unlimited presented Virginia Tech right fielder Cori McMillan with a “golden ticket,” meaning she will be selected in the league’s inaugural draft on Saturday alongside teammate Emma Lemley. The #Hokies are the only team in the country with two draftees, as of now.
