Cagle on Young: "Rachel went through an ACL reconstruction last summer prior to attending Virginia Tech, so she missed her first fall season. She was able to compete in the spring, and did fairly well having just come off such a severe injury. We expect that after a summer's worth of training, Rachel will be a different contributor this fall. She is certainly a big part of our program, and an important component of her class."2004: Redshirted during her first year at Virginia Tech.
