Nine student-athletes from Blacksburg High School have formally committed to continuing their athletic careers at the collegiate level by signing their National Letters of Intent (NLI). This marks a significant achievement for the athletes, their families, and the Blacksburg High School athletic program.

The National Letter of Intent is a binding agreement between a student-athlete and an institution. By signing, the student-athlete agrees to attend the institution in exchange for the institution’s commitment to provide financial aid.
