FRIDAY, APRIL 8 – COACH SZEFC 100th TECH WIN RECOGNITION

Szefc – who holds a 495-356-4 record across 17 head coaching seasons – won his 100th game at Tech when he led the Hokies to their 13-4 victory at VMI on March 29 in Lexington.
SATURDAY, APRIL 9 – HARRY POTTER DAY
Fans are invited to join the Hokies in the wizarding world on Saturday when Tech celebrates Harry Potter Day. The best-dressed witch or wizard in attendance will win a prize courtesy of Virginia Tech athletics while the first fans through the gates at English Field will receive a free beanie.
At concession stands, fans may spend their galleons (dollars) on non-alcoholic Butterbeer or feast on "The Hammer 2" – a cheeseburger topped with pulled pork BBQ sauce, coleslaw and pickled onions (all concession stand transactions are cashless and will require a charge card). Throughout the afternoon, fans may compete in Harry Potter themed games, make magical memories at a Harry Potter photo station, watch clips from their favorite films and be entertained by a live in-venue emcee.
SUNDAY, APRIL 10 – KIDS RUN THE BASES
Fans may collect Tech baseball trading cards of the Hokies' 2022 senior and graduate student class, while supplies last. After the game, fans are encouraged to stick around and have their trading cards signed by their favorite Tech players.
Following Sunday's series finale between Tech and NC State, any and all kids in attendance are invited to run the bases at English Field (weather permitting).
