Swampboy,
PG shows that Virginia Tech picked up six 2011 kids. Four of those are position players with only two being pitchers. I don't have access to the PG top 500 list but maybe there are more pitchers on the list than position players? If that's the case, maybe that's why they are farther down the list? That being said, I am very surprised Virginia Tech did not recruit any 2011 Virginia kids. There was certainly plenty of talent to be had here in-state. I only saw Tech at one of my son's summer team's games and that was at East Cobb. There was lot of talent on that team I thought would have been worth checking out. I'm not sure if they were at the Commonwealth Games in July.
