Not in favor of playing.....

the ACC tourney at the home of a team in another league. Either rotate among league schools or identify independent sites in the conference footprint.

ACC Tournament in Massachusettes?
HoHumHokie • 05/04/25 07:36 PM ET
Honestly, the league should contract with Liberty and hold the . . .
MidloHokie • 05/04/25 09:21 PM ET
Salem would be a good neutral site. **
RJHokie • 05/04/25 09:29 PM ET
Where you going to play in Salem? Moyer is great for travel ball but . . .
MidloHokie • 05/04/25 09:45 PM ET
It's good enough to play the DIV 3 national title game there
VTChip • 05/04/25 10:11 PM ET
Imagine if VT put even half of that into TSP? ORRRRRR....
91HokieBob • 05/08/25 10:26 AM ET
How does it compare to Liberty's place? Are stands covered now?**
MidloHokie • 05/04/25 10:26 PM ET
Here you go in a picture WITH cost for LU**
91HokieBob • 05/08/25 10:27 AM ET
Yes the first and third base stand are now covered
VTChip • 05/04/25 10:55 PM ET
Agree. No creative thinking in league office. Just do what's easy in . .
MidloHokie • 05/04/25 11:11 PM ET
Oh, so VT is a microcosm of the ACC?**
saret • 05/08/25 10:05 AM ET
Yep; at least partially covered **
hokiepro • 05/04/25 10:47 PM ET
Here’s a link to the upgraded facility. **
RJHokie • 05/04/25 10:31 PM ET
Seating at any one field for 500. I guess you could do temporary seats . .
MidloHokie • 05/04/25 10:49 PM ET
I’ve been there.

2hhoop3 • 05/04/25 11:09 PM ET
Oh, I understand. However, really nice, true softball stadiums are hard . .
MidloHokie • 05/04/25 11:14 PM ET
I do not disagree........
2hhoop3 • 05/04/25 11:22 PM ET
Personally, I would play at a neutral site venue like ACC baseball does
VTChip • 05/08/25 09:58 AM ET
You and I are thinking similarly.....
2hhoop3 • 05/08/25 10:26 AM ET
Well turned phrase at the end.**
saret • 05/08/25 10:54 AM ET
Thanks.......
2hhoop3 • 05/08/25 11:02 AM ET
So, another example of VT being a microcosm of the ACC.**
saret • 05/08/25 11:09 AM ET
Yep. **
RJHokie • 05/04/25 11:10 PM ET
Moyer has nice new facilities and the city does a good job catering
RJHokie • 05/04/25 09:52 PM ET
Moyer > BC now AND they could put temporary bleachers behind outfield fence
hokiepro • 05/04/25 09:50 PM ET
Lived in Boston for a number of years. April/early-May can still be ugly.
BackInTheBurg • 05/04/25 08:37 PM ET
Well, it is the ACC.
RJHokie • 05/04/25 08:43 PM ET
Mosquitoes and cold weather- another genius move**
tallahasseehokie • 05/04/25 07:45 PM ET
BC was on the rotation for the tourney and wanted to “showcase” their
RJHokie • 05/04/25 07:44 PM ET
They still should never be in the rotation. In fact, Fredo should ...
Atlee Hokie • 05/04/25 08:52 PM ET
had not heard the Fredo reference for BC in a while
Jeffrey4VT • 05/05/25 09:36 AM ET
Rain every day of the tournament this week in Boston.**
hokietony • 05/04/25 08:37 PM ET
not to worry: they’ll move it to the nearest domed stadium which is in …**
HtownHokie • 05/04/25 09:26 PM ET
That will be interesting. **
