Weight: 285
3-star recruit by 247Sports, #8 center overall, #26 player in PA

Eric Gallo was First Team All-State in Pennsylvania’s Class 4A, which is a very impressive accomplishment.  We’ve heard through the grapevine that former VT offensive line coach Jeff Grimes fell in love with Gallo’s tape as soon as he saw it, and soon made contact and sent in the scholarship offer.

Gallo has good film against a high level of competition in the state of Pennsylvania.  The Hokies have had a number of good players from that state through the years (Jim Druckenmiller, Kyshoen Jarrett, Cullen Hawkins, Cornelius White, Chris Drager, Bob Slowikowski, Kevin Jones, Matt Wincek, Josh Redding, and probably a few others I’m forgetting as well), and it’s good to see them getting involved there yet again.  It’s a good football state that is very close to Virginia, we’ve ignored it for far too long.
