Gregory Status in Question

Tony Gregory, a 2008 signee out of First Colonial High School in Virginia Beach, Virginia, hopes to enroll at Virginia Tech later this summer, but there is a chance he may have to take an alternate route before he gets to Blacksburg. The 6-0, 190-pound running back updated his qualification status, including what his plans may be if he cannot make it to Tech this summer.

“There could be some question about me going there because my SAT score is just short, I think, so I had to take it again this month,” said Gregory, who has been in close contact with primary recruiter Curt Newsome to find out what he has to do to qualify. “I’m not far from the score I need…just a couple of points. I took the test already. I felt I did good.”

Gregory added, “If I don’t make it, I’ll probably go to Fork Union for a couple of months and then go to Virginia Tech in January.”

Whenever Gregory arrives in Blacksburg, he’ll be sure to bring speed to the running back position. In addition to posting a hand-timed 4.38 40 at a Virginia Beach combine the spring of his junior year, Gregory won the region and finished second in the state in the indoor 55 meters. He went on to finish seventh in the indoor 60 meters at Nationals.
