Before this past season I thought she did have that potential...

...but I think her physical limitations became more clear and Trent's development and the potential of Jenkins (hopefully both stay) leaves Petersen's future role here less clear. I think she was very valuable as a freshman on a team with little depth (and she was a much better front court option off the bench than Ramiya White and Maya Hazleton). I really appreciated Petersen's grit and hustle and she deserves more of an opportunity to display that in a program that needs what she can offer. I wish her well. ** Edited by delmarva hokie at 3/26/2026, 1:12:00 PM

This is more of a loss than I think people realize
Maverick86 03/26/26 10:30 AM ET
She digressed from 1st year, doubt she will find big school home.**
George Baylor 03/27/26 08:04 AM ET
Sorry, not really. Seems like a great person and teammate. But she isn't

Honest assessment on his part. Good probability it was THE conversation.**
TomTurkey 03/27/26 01:23 PM ET
He stated exact truth.
MrFantastic! 03/27/26 07:38 AM ET
Nothing 'hateful' there. That assessment is another example of how . . .
MidloHokie 03/26/26 09:20 PM ET
He was stating that it was no loss. Kayl came to VT when VT needed
SHPHOKIE 03/27/26 01:16 PM ET
Anyone who leaves is a loss. Loss in coaches spending energy devolving that
Stork 03/27/26 04:41 PM ET

mrknowitall 03/27/26 04:55 PM ET

Hokie98 03/26/26 06:45 PM ET
Your first sentence wasn't, either**

Before this past season I thought she did have that potential...
delmarva hokie 03/26/26 01:11 PM ET
I was a little more worried about one of Jenkins/Trent....
`lag 03/26/26 07:03 PM ET
Disagree. But respect your thought.
MrFantastic! 03/26/26 10:38 AM ET
She’s very skilled an HIGH Bball IQ; she’s just not tall or athletic enough
hokiepro 03/26/26 10:53 AM ET
Agree mid-major, surely not a 4 or 5 with her size/speed. Best of luck.**
George Baylor 03/27/26 08:05 AM ET
agree she will be ok where she ends up **
MrFantastic! 03/26/26 11:41 AM ET
She'd get a steal or two or a block in games...
`lag 03/26/26 11:15 AM ET
Seems like a terrific young woman, teammate, high IQ player. We will
