Plans are already in the works for a phenomenal football game watching season. As always, Sharkeez - Newport Beach is OC Hokies HQ. Please look for a mailer and email announcing this season`s game watching times, special themes, and other special locations. See you in September.

Thanks to all the OC & LA Hokies who came out to Anaheim Stadium on Sunday for a fantastic time. Photos are up in the gallery. Check `em out!!!

The OC Hokies would like to say thank you to all the people who joined us last Wednesday for the VT for Life Blood Drive. With the cooperation of the American Red Cross, we collected 14 pints of blood. Thanks donors and volunteers. Special thanks as well to Candice Palmer who coordinated the effort for our first community service event.

Having already signed massive defensive tackle Nick Acree, O-line stand-outs Mark Shuman and Caleb Farris, DT Derrick Hopkins, and linebacker Tahrick Peak, the Hokies picked up our top two QB targets in Mark "Leathal" Leal and Ricardo Young. Both held many offers but are solid commits to Tech and Coach Beamer.

Tech continues it`s success as well with attracting family members. Tahrick Peak will join his brother Nubian Peak (2009 RB) and Derrick joins his brother Antoine Hopkins (2008 DT/DE). When our Hokies say "family" they mean it!

Having just completed spring practices around the country, the Hokies are SI`s #5 pick to start the 2009-2010 season. Way to go Hokies!
