Virginia Tech hires Dwight Galt IV as new strength and conditioning coach

It seems like every day, Virginia Tech head football coach Brent Pry is adding to his coaching staff. On Tuesday, Pry hired former Hokie star Pierson Prioleau as safeties coach to finalize his defensive staff.

On Wednesday, Pry made another big hire, naming Dwight Galt IV as Virginia Tech’s director of football strength and conditioning.

Galt comes to Blacksburg from Old Dominion, where he had served as director of sports performance since January 2019.

What is his connection to Pry, you might ask?

Before his time at ODU, Galt was the assistant director of strength and conditioning at Penn State for seven seasons.
