This was a bit of an unusual mid-week matchup for the Hokies. VMI came down I-81 to visit for the Tuesday game, but instead of a short break before heading on the long road to Boston, Tech took the local buses down Prices Fork and out Peppers Ferry to visit our New River Valley cousins at Radford.
Both the Keydets and the Highlanders were in no mood to lose, and certainly weren’t impressed by the Hokies’ #8 ranking. They brought their best sticks to their efforts. Virginia Tech had to find their hammers in the middle of both games to get the jobs done.
