Craft Visits In-State Schools

Once committed to Virginia Tech’s men’s basketball program, William Fleming (Roanoke, VA) senior Warren Craft’s athletic future may now lie on the football field. Craft and Tech basketball went their separate ways this past spring, but the Hokies’ football program has expressed interest and UVa football has offered a scholarship. Craft visited both schools this past week, beginning with Tech’s home game against Miami.

“It was great,” Craft said of the Tech experience. “Didn’t get there until late, right before the game. I enjoyed the game though.”

The 6’3”, 185-pound senior says the Tech coaches gave “no clear indications” regarding where he stood in terms of a scholarship offer. UVa extended an offer within the past few weeks, and Craft reciprocated the interest with an unofficial visit to Charlottesville this past Saturday.

“I really enjoyed it,” Craft said of UVa. “The coaches and players made me feel welcome. Great environment and I can tell that the coaches/staff really care.”
