Hokies have the eye of the Tiger
Behind plays like this dunk from Victor Davila, Virginia Tech held on and knocked off the Clemson Tigers in front of a packed house at Cassell Coliseum.
The Student-Athlete Experience
“Thank you for all you do, and for giving us all the opportunity to represent the Virginia Tech community and school.”
Alyssa Fenyn | Junior, Women's Basketball
“As student-athletes, we really appreciate all of the support we get from the Hokie Nation. It has been a tremendous experience for me representing Virginia Tech the past four years.”
Victor Davila | Senior, Men's Basketball
