People often call Virginia Tech's football team a "blue collar team." We never get the 5 star recruits, we rarely have a flashy offense, and our coaching staff is mostly made up of VT alumni and Virginia locals. But, our teams always work hard, we play great defense, and our coaches turn unknown recruits into NFL stars.
The same goes for our wakeboard team. We rarely get superstar talent, our boat is over 20 years old, and we ride in cold weather most of the year at a very working-class lake. But, we own our boat and do most of the maintenance ourselves, we drive 24+ hours to competitions, and we push past small wakes and icy cold conditions to progress. We may not have it all, but we have a blast making do with what we have. Check out this video for a little peek into our daily life.
