Former Virginia Tech men's tennis player, Mark Tepes will represent the United States February 6-11 when the team travels to San Diego, Calif. to compete in the 2012 International Tennis Federation (ITF) Senior World Championships. 

The Italia Cup is one of 10 cups – each of which represents a different age division and/or gender. Ages range from 35 to 55 for both men and women. In all, 40 players will represent the United States in a competition unlike any regular tennis match as they match up against teams from around the world. It is the highest ranked team event on the circuit.

Tepes played at Tech under former coach Larsen Bowker from 1994-98 and graduated in the Fall of 1998.

Former Virginia Tech quarterback Bruce Arians decided to retire from coaching after a long and successful career at many different stops.

 

Arians, who played at Tech from 1972-74, most recently served as the offensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers – a job he had held since 2007 when current Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin took over as the head coach. Arians had served as the receivers coach for the Steelers from 2004-06. During his time with the Steelers, he was a part of two Super Bowl-winning teams (2005 and 2008).

 

Arians also spent time with the Cleveland Browns and with the Indianapolis Colts. In 2001-03, he served as the Browns offensive coordinator, while in 1998-2000, he worked as the Colts quarterbacks coach.

 

His first work as an NFL assistant came in 1989 when he was named the Kansas City Chiefs running backs coach. Prior to that, he worked at three different colleges – Mississippi State (running backs and receivers coach, 1978-80), Alabama (running backs coach, 1981-82) and Temple (head coach, 1983-88). Temple went 21-45 during his tenure.

 

For his career, he has worked for five NFL teams and three colleges, including twice working at both Mississippi State (1978-80 and 1993-95) and Alabama (1981-82 and 1997).

 

After he graduated from Tech, he worked as a graduate assistant for two years.

The Virginia Tech football program will welcome three new members to its program when it re-convenes Tuesday evening for a team meeting to begin preparing for the 2012 season. Those three players are two recent high school graduates: running back J.C. Coleman and defensive back Donaldven Manning, along with 2011 signee Dewayne Alford. All three began classes Tuesday at Tech.

Alford, a projected defensive end from Nansemond River High in Suffolk, Va., signed with Tech last February and deferred his enrollment to this semester. He was listed as the No. 30 player in Virginia last year by The Roanoke Times.

Coleman played at Oscar Smith High in Chesapeake, Va., helping lead his team to a state title just last month. He is ranked as the No. 4 all-purpose back in the country and the No. 5 prospect in Virginia by Rivals after rushing for 1,488 yards and 20 touchdowns as a senior despite missing three games with an ankle injury. Manning (first name pronounced Donovan) played at Miami Central High in Miami, Fla., and is listed as the No. 23 cornerback in the country and the No. 42 player in Florida by Rivals.

Because both Coleman and Manning are enrolling in January, neither will sign a National Letter of Intent. Alford’s NLI from 2011 was still binding. Signing Day is Wednesday, Feb. 1 this year.

Former Virginia Tech golfer Johnson Wagner won his third PGA Tour event with a two-stroke victory at the Sony Open in Hawaii on Sunday evening. With the win, Wagner is exempt on the PGA Tour through 2014 and earns a berth in this year’s Masters and next season’s Hyundai Tournament of Champions.

 

Wagner shot a final round three-under-par 67 and finished with a four-day total of 13-under-par 267, two strokes ahead of four golfers who tied at 269. Wagner played bogey-free golf over the final 12 holes to secure the victory.

 

As a result of the victory, Wagner claimed 500 FedEx points and earned a paycheck of $990,000. With his ninth place finish in last week’s Hyundai Tournament of Champions, Wagner claims an early lead in the FedEx points race. He has 575 FedEx points, 45 ahead of Steve Stricker, who won last week in Maui.

 

Wagner was not the only Hokie to fare well at the Waialea Country Club this weekend, as former teammate Brendon de Jonge finished tied for 10^th place at the event. He pocketed $137,500 in the tournament, as well as 70 FedEx points.

Former Virginia Tech golfer Johnson Wagner finished in a tie for ninth place at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions at the Plantation Course at Kapalua in Maui, Hawaii. Wagner shot a four-round total of 13-under-par 279, including a six-under-par 67 in Monday’s final round.

 

Wagner, who claimed a berth in the winner’s-only event with a victory in last season’s Mayakoba Golf Classic, earned $165,000 with his finish. He will compete in this week’s Sony Open in Hawaii, along with former Hokie teammate Brendon de Jonge.

Three former Virginia Tech football players, all from the AFC, will be on active rosters in the upcoming playoffs in search of a Super Bowl title.

Tech had four on active rosters going into the playoffs. The four from the AFC on active rosters, are the following:
Pittsburgh: Jason Worilds
Denver: Eddie Royal
Baltimore: Tyrod Taylor
Houston: Duane Brown

Baltimore (Taylor) will host the Texans (Brown) this weekend the Broncos (Royal) travel to play the Patriots.

Rashad Carmichael (Houston) and Josh Morgan (San Francisco) are on the injured reserve of their respective teams.

    Senior sprinter Aunye Boone of the women’s track & field team has been named a recipient of the Academic Momentum Award as announced by the Scholar Baller® program, in conjunction with the National Consortium for Academics and Sports (NCAS). Boone was one of 49 student-athletes honored from across the nation and was tabbed to the second team.

    Nominations were categorized into three teams based on each student-athlete’s academic improvement and the impact each student-athlete’s academic performance had on his or her classmates, teammates, academic advisors, and professors.

    Boone, an English major from St. Leonard, Md., led the team in the outdoor 400-meter dash this past season, setting a personal best at the Hurricane Invitational (55.23). Indoors, she ran on the school record-setting 4x400-meter relay at the ACC Championships (3:38.16) and was named to the All-ACC and USTFCCCA Academic Teams.

     The NCAS is an ever-growing organization of colleges and universities that provides opportunities for current and former student-athletes to continue their pursuit of higher education, while working in the community with children to address social issues. Established in 1985, the overall mission of the NCAS is “to create a better society by focusing on educational attainment and using the power appeal of sport to positively affect social change.”

     Established in 1995, the Scholar Baller® movement evolved in response to concerns that the student-athlete’s athletics role increasingly superseded the student role. In order to address this issue, the founding members of Scholar Baller developed a groundbreaking program to bridge the gap between education and sport utilizing student-athletes’ passion for entertainment and athletics. As a result, the Scholar Baller program has produced unprecedented outcomes in student retention and academic achievement.

Here is a look at the postgame depth chart from the ACC title game game. The number before the slash indicates plays from scrimmage, while the number after the slash indicates plays from special teams. The number of plays, the grades and the tackles came from the coaching staff.

Virginia Tech golfing great Brendon de Jonge has been selected to the Zimbabwe national team that will compete in the World Cup later this month in China.

 

The World Cup, a biennial event that matches two-man teams based on the Official World Golf Ranking, will be played Nov. 24-27, 2011 at Mission Hills in Shenzhen, China. The format will be 72 holes of stroke play, with four ball play for the first and third rounds and foursomes for the second and fourth rounds. In all, 28 countries will field teams in the tournament.

 

De Jonge’s partner will be Bruce McDonald, a professional on the developmental tours, who just advanced to second stage in the European Tour Qualifying. De Jonge finished 76^th on the PGA Tour’s money list this season, with $1,241,326 in earnings.

 

De Jonge earned the honor by placing inside the Top 100 players in world ranking as of the deadline - after the Wyndham Championship - and as so, had the option to select his own partner.  He and McDonald have been friends for years and McDonald has caddied for de Jonge the last two years in the Greenbrier Classic.

 

Matt Kuchar and Gary Woodland are representing the United States.  The event will be televised by the Golf Channel.

The Virginia Tech golf team is hosting the first-ever Virginia Tech Golf Team Player Reunion Tournament at the Pete Dye River Course of Virginia Tech this weekend, November 5-6.  The event consists of a 36-hole Two-Man Team event on Saturday and Sunday with a social and dinner Saturday night.  Tee time is a shotgun start at noon on Saturday, with warm-up at 11 a.m. and tour of VT Golf Complex at 10:30 a.m. Sunday is a 9 a.m. shotgun start.  

 

There are 28 players from nine states representing seven decades of Virginia Tech golf returning to play in the event. The most senior member of the group will be Dr. Richard Duma, class of 1955. Marshall Bailey (’11), the only player who appeared in four NCAA Championships with his Hokie teammates, will also return for the event.

 

Others expected in attendance are Neff McClary (‘66), a Southern Conference champion, Ryan Stinnett (’04), a BIG EAST Conference champion, John Bruce (’76), who won the Virginia State Open four consecutive years and current Virginia Tech associate head coach Brian Sharp (’95) a former member of the Nationwide Tour who won four collegiate tournaments, including the Metro Conference championship.
