It’s hard to believe that Deron Washington last played for the Hokies nine years ago during the 2007-08 season.
Easily one of the most electric athletes to grace Cassell Coliseum, Washington was instrumental in Virginia Tech’s most recent NCAA Tournament appearance back in 2006-07.
During his four-year career, Washington totaled 1,408 points, 689 rebounds, 151 steals, and 115 blocks. He was a well-rounded player who provided countless sparks during Tech’s run to the Big Dance.
That season, the Hokies defeated No. 5 Duke and No. 1 North Carolina in Blacksburg before knocking off the Tar Heels in Chapel Hill later in the year.
