Virginia Tech has relieved baseball coach Pat Mason of his duties after four seasons. The announcement came Sunday, one day after Virginia Tech failed to qualify for the ACC baseball tournament for the third time under Mason.
“After careful consideration and an ongoing evaluation of the long-term direction of baseball at Virginia Tech, we have decided to make a change,” Director of Athletics Whit Babcock said in a statement.
“While I know Coach Mason is disappointed, he has handled this situation like the consummate professional that he is. We wish him the best.”
The Hokies were 90-126-1 during Mason’s tenure as head coach including a 23-32 mark this season.
