Audrey Stenger will take her volleyball talents to Christopher Newport University and Bode Thompson will swim at Macalester College.

“This high school is truly blessed with good athletes, great family support. The school in the staff work with these kids and they build them up and you just don’t know where freshman is going to be by the time they become a senior,” said Blacksburg athletic director Peter Lyell. “Some of these kids have matured and this is the proof and what they are yielding from it.”
