Virginia Tech Hokies Win the Their NCAA Regional Tournament to Advance to the Supers

Well, isn’t this some serious level of exciting? For the first time, ever, the Virginia Tech Hokies Baseball team has rolled through a Regional Playoff, to grab that championship level and advance to the Super Regionals. That fact needs to stand just for a moment because it’s a special achievement for a program that barely scraped its way above .500 in 2021, suffered through the COVID shutdown of 2020, and just finished a game below .500 in 2019. The turnaround can be credited to two people. First, due credit must be given to Whit Babcock, who as a former college baseball player at JMU, looked at the facilities and the staffing of the waning Virginia Tech program with chagrin and resolve.
