Hokies Host Texas A&M, Wake Forest, and Elon During Alumni Weekend at VT
Blacksburg, VA – The Hokies are set for a packed and exciting weekend as Virginia Tech Lacrosse welcomes back alumni from all eras for Alumni Weekend, while both our Division I and Division II teams host major out-of-conference matchups.
The Division I squad will take on perennial Lone Star powerhouse Texas A&M, while the Division II team welcomes Wake Forest and Elon for key matchups that are sure to have playoff implications down the line.
A Weekend to Remember
Alumni Weekend is always a special time for our program. Former players, families, and friends will be returning to Blacksburg to reconnect, celebrate Hokie Lacrosse, and see firsthand the progress of both teams. From tailgates and campus meetups to catching the action on the field, it’s a chance to reflect on our program’s history and fuel its future.
"This weekend is all about family," said Coach Panchito Ojeda. "We want our alumni to feel proud of the culture they helped build and see how the next generation is carrying the torch."
D2 Hosts Wake Forest & Elon
The Division II team continues its strong spring campaign with two important home games against SELC rivals. On Saturday, the Hokies will face Wake Forest, a gritty and well-coached team that always brings intensity. Sunday’s matchup against Elon will cap the weekend with another high-tempo contest.
“Our D2 guys have been training with purpose,” said Coach Joel Smith. “These games give us the opportunity to test our depth and discipline against two quality opponents.”
D1 Clash with Texas A&M
All eyes will be on the Division I field as the Hokies face off against Texas A&M, one of the top programs in the Lone Star Alliance. The Aggies bring a physical and high-IQ brand of lacrosse, making for a high-stakes, entertaining matchup.
“This is the kind of game that shows where we stand,” said Ryan Gaffney. “A&M is always a battle, and we’re ready to rise to the occasion—especially in front of the alumni who built this program.”
Join Us!
We invite all alumni, fans, and supporters to come out this weekend and help us make it one to remember. Whether you’re on the sideline, in the stands, or catching up at the tailgate, your presence makes a difference.
Let’s show Wake Forest, Elon, and Texas A&M what Hokie pride looks like.
