At this point, I think it has to be D'Amour. Preseason, Tech was picked

to finish third in the ACC and went 5-1 against the teams picked first and second. Yes, UVA was picked 10th and is currently sixth, but third to first is better than tenth to sixth. When you add in Tech's national ranking, it has to be Coach D'Amour.

Discussion topic: Who's ACC Coach of the Year?
VT_AD • 05/03/22 09:24 AM ET
Coach Pete all the way. Very deserving. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:44 PM ET
Coach Pete should be/deserves ACC Coach of the Year.
carhokies • 05/03/22 01:02 PM ET
I agree 100%. Great coach great recruiter. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:45 PM ET
He beat therm 2 of 3 last yer too.
OKDokeyHokie • 05/03/22 02:25 PM ET
Pete deserves it based on what he has accomplished.**
delawarehokie • 05/03/22 01:20 PM ET
Absolutely DH. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:45 PM ET
I agree because
OKDokeyHokie • 05/03/22 02:39 PM ET
Pete may not win ACC COY, but could win national COY**
ronvpi • 05/03/22 10:28 AM ET
Indeed he could. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:46 PM ET
The perverse logic might be that he has won the ACC COY recently (2019)...

Great Point - this is from Softball America's preseason thoughts on the ACC
VTChip • 05/03/22 10:55 AM ET
For sure great motivation Chip. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:48 PM ET
He didn't name VT either in the top pitching staffs returning.
carhokies • 05/03/22 12:49 PM ET
Oh yeah. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:47 PM ET
It's been hanging in my indoor facility as well.**
dallasvt • 05/03/22 12:06 PM ET
That's such lazy research**
VT_AD • 05/03/22 11:26 AM ET
Yep…..not one word about VT.
RJHokie • 05/03/22 11:20 AM ET
I'll add this
VT_AD • 05/03/22 10:14 AM ET
Personally I don’t think finishing 6th is worthy of COY

Here here TD. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:49 PM ET
👍👍👍**
RJHokie • 05/03/22 11:08 AM ET
I think Pete or UVA probably
VTsportscaster • 05/03/22 09:32 AM ET
The only thing uva deserves is to be smacked around.**
Blueboy • 05/03/22 01:53 PM ET

Kind of a fuzzy award in ways, I see "improvement" being the biggest
`lag • 05/03/22 09:58 AM ET
Respectable
Techdady • 05/03/22 10:03 AM ET
Do we consider the flashy digs?**
IB4TECH • 05/03/22 10:38 AM ET
That's my point, it's a fuzzy award "bad to respectable" might be...
`lag • 05/03/22 10:22 AM ET
Feel good
Techdady • 05/03/22 10:30 AM ET
At this point, I think it has to be D'Amour. Preseason, Tech was picked ◄
dallasvt • 05/03/22 09:41 AM ET
Yeah, math curve there, those last few spots get increasingly harder
`lag • 05/03/22 10:54 AM ET
Plus Pete actively went after and secured a tough schedule where others
RJHokie • 05/03/22 09:37 AM ET
And mostly took care of business
OKDokeyHokie • 05/03/22 02:42 PM ET
Reminds me a little how F$U built their football brand
EDGEMAN • 05/03/22 12:16 PM ET
Yeah that was a brutal schedule - good point**
VT_AD • 05/03/22 09:56 AM ET
It darn well better not go to Dook, who played a cream puff schedule.**
