The Virginia Tech Hokies baseball program finished the 2024 season with a record of 32-22, including 14-16 in ACC play. That marked the Hokies’ fifth consecutive winning season. Coach John Szefc arrived in Blacksburg from Maryland in 2018, and Tech’s recent success is not a surprise to anyone who’s followed Szefc over the years.
With Virginia Tech’s success, it’s no surprise the talent has improved, too. The Hokies have had several prospects go in the MLB draft in recent years, including outfielder Gavin Cross, a top-10 pick two years ago.
We had the 2024 MLB draft this week, and several Hokies heard their names called.
