VT Men's Soccer

VT is hosting UNC-Charlotte in the 2nd round of the NCAA soccer tournament.

Through the first half, the score is 0-0. VT has been very organized from the defensive midfield back to the keeper. Charlotte only generated one real threat in the half. Offensively, VT has not committed numbers forward and has not really been able to generate a sustained attack. VT has generated 4 corner kicks (to Charlotte's 1) off of some three man play just outside the box but none of the corner kicks have generated a substantial scoring chance.

Eventually one of the teams will have to commit to finding a goal, the question becomes will a defensive breakdown result in the 1st goal after good organization by both team for 45 minutes or will numbers forward generate sustained pressure and success.

The Hokies have a good shot at advancing right bow. Go Hokies.

1 - 0 Hokies.
Ball centered from the right side. VT committed more guys on the attack after a patient minute or two of ball control.

I want to thank you for providing some positive updates on a Hokiesport that's doing well, I think we could all use that right about now. You the real MVP, tdhokies.

21st century QBs Undefeated vs UVA:
MV7, MV5, LT3, Grant Wells, Braxton Burmeister, Ryan Willis, Josh Jackson, Jerod Evans, Michael Brewer, Tyrod Taylor, Sean Glennon, and Grant Noel. That's right, UVA. You couldn't beat Grant Noel.

That is the good thing about being a Hokie, there is always something good happening to embrace.

On to the next round, 1 - 0 Hokies.

Go Hokies, beat Purdue.
