So excited to share that I’m the new Voice of Virginia Tech Women’s Basketball and Baseball. This is truly a dream come true for me. Thank you to

Sources: Evan Hughes has won his 18th consecutive Easter Egg Hunt championship against his sister.
He collected 19 eggs, while holding his sister to a career-low 9 eggs. Those that attended said that his decision to box her out on the deck at the beginning was a pivotal moment.
What a treat it was to meet Coach Duffy this morning!

Last week, I shared on the radio I hadn’t see the movie Major League. I had nearly 50 different people tweet at me. One even told me I had to relinquish my broadcast card.
I am watching it now. I have the highest of expectations for this movie.
One of my favorite athletes I’ve ever covered.
@taylorsoule14
is and will continue to change the world. Everywhere she goes she impacts people in a positive way.
Thanks
@ARomanoWDBJ
for capturing the moment!
How about true freshman Brett Renfrow in his
@HokiesBaseball
career debut? The freshman from Manassas, Va. in his first outing:
5.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 7 K. 70 pitches, 46 for strikes. Against a team that made a Regional final a year ago.
What a start ‼️
Last night, the 2019 season came to a close. I can’t thank the
@StCloudRox
enough for another great year.
146 baseball games in two years and I feel that I have grown so much because of it. Thank you to
@LazeVT
for getting me to St. Cloud. There truly is something special here.
First time since the 1999 and 2000 seasons that
@HokiesBaseball
has won back-to-back series over Virginia. Great weekend for the squad as they take two of three games from the No. 5 team in the nation!
Over 5 years ago, I took this picture with

5 years later, he’s an impact player for
