The Hokies Baseball Team opens at home with an impressive five hit shutout of the East Tennessee State University Buccaneers. The pitching was excellent, and the sticks showed up again to hang 11 runs on the score board.
It was bordering on flat out cold, and overcast in, with a serious case of threatening drizzle in Blacksburg, today. Tell me how anyone is surprised with that weather report for late February. That inconvenient climatic fact did exactly nothing to put a dent in the Hokies' Opening day at home. English Field and the hardy fans in the stands were treated to a five hit 11-0 shutout of the East Tennessee State University Buccaneers.
