With football season basically over (the last major date is National Signing Day on Feb 1), fans should turn their attention to Virginia Tech’s other sports programs.
The men’s basketball team is still looking for their first win in conference play, a victory that will be hard to come by in the immediate future. The Hokies host North Carolina Thursday night before traveling to Charlottesville Sunday to take on the Cavaliers. For Seth Greenberg’s young group, an upset win could jumpstart a team that ranks near the bottom of the country in most major stat categories.
Women’s basketball recently fell to No. 7 Duke 61-34. Alyssa Fenyn scored 11 points in the loss. 2-3 in conference play after dropping their last three, the Hokies face-off against North Carolina Thursday at 5 p.m. before the men’s game.
Devin Carter (133 pounds) recently became the first Hokies wrestler since 2002 to reach No. 1 in his weight class according to InterMat rankings. Only a sophomore, Carter hails from nearby Christiansburg High School.
