BLACKSBURG – Virginia Tech football had a pair of its players honored Wednesday on The Athletic's Freshman All-America team, as P Peter Moore and G Kaden Moore each earned selections. Peter Moore was named the first-team punter, while Kaden Moore earned second-team offensive line honors. 
 
Peter Moore (6-1, 207) holds a 45.1-yard average on 59 punts this season, which is the highest average in the conference this season. The Davidsonville, Maryland native earned third-team All-ACC honors after tying for the conference lead with 23 punts of 50+ yards and tying for third in the ACC with 22 punts inside the 20-yard line.
