After five wins to start the season, the Virginia Tech men's basketball team heads to Paradise Island in the Bahamas for the Battle 4 Atlantis. This will be another early-season test for Mike Young's team, and they will see a familiar face when they play Colorado State.
Former guard Brandon Rechsteiner transferred to the Rams last spring in the Transfer Portal for a bigger role, and that's what he's getting. So far in five games, he is averaging just over 13 points a game. Colorado State was an NCAA Tournament team last year and a favorite in the Mountain West Conference, but they enter the game off a home loss against the University of Denver.
