Athlon Sports tabs two Hokies as Preseason All-Americans

As we continue to move towards the start of the 2017-18 football season, many publications are releasing their season previews, which in many cases, include All-American awards lists.

Athlon Sports is one of the many magazines to release their season preview for all FBS teams. Within this preview is the Preseason All-American list, which happens to include two members of the Virginia Tech defense.

Senior cornerback Greg Stroman was named as a Second Team Preseason All-American, while junior linebacker Tremaine Edmunds was tabbed as a Third Team Preseason All-American.

Despite only playing in nine of the 11 games for the Hokies due to injury, Stroman enjoyed a productive junior year as one of the premier members of the Virginia Tech secondary, as he recorded 10 pass breakups and three interceptions on the year.
