No ACC conference softball tournament is on a neutral field. I don't know

how much home field matters in softball. I wonder how many host teams have won the ACC tournament who weren't a 1 or 2 seed going in. Or host teams who have overperformed their seed (might be better to look at). There are always a huge contingent of Hokie fans in Charlottesville (for most sports). So, that is probably the best place for us to play outside of our own home as far as fan support.

VT routed Cuse with a handful of fans. No Arthur or Chip.

Interesting. They have held their baseball tournament in the Birmingham
nkhooch • 05/04/26 04:04 PM ET
Sounds like a great idea. The ACC should follow suit.**
VTChip • 05/04/26 03:53 PM ET
Ha! Neutral to the ACC brass would be at a Charlotte NC high school. **

I promise you it'd be hard to find a better site than Salem.**
Hokie-2x • 05/04/26 05:20 PM ET
Salem needs to get creative. Convert the Ridgeyaks field for softball.
MidloHokie • 05/04/26 05:37 PM ET
Hasn’t Salem hosted the D2 National Championship?
Hockeydad • 05/05/26 10:35 AM ET
Capacity is not the issue
MidloHokie • 05/05/26 11:39 AM ET
Agree.**

HokieNL • 05/04/26 05:17 PM ET
Probably related to MidloHokie who thinks that’s a good idea.
RJHokie • 05/04/26 05:20 PM ET
Yeah, I don't see him hanging out with Falwell, Jr. watching... anything!**
HokieNL • 05/04/26 05:23 PM ET
Well, you're right about that ;)**
MidloHokie • 05/04/26 05:27 PM ET
Nope! **
PokieHokie • 05/04/26 05:20 PM ET
Had to ask. 😊**
