Rome News-Tribune article about Patrick Kearns' commitment to play football at Virginia Tech.
Despite an injury last summer that kept him from playing his final season and a change in the college's coaching personnel, the senior has kept his eye on becoming a Hokie following graduation.
“There were so many people I met and things I saw in Blacksburg that told me it was the right choice,” Kearns said. “But more than anything, I just felt like Virginia Tech fit me as a student and as an athlete.”

The Adairsville, Ga. native will make his commitment official on National Signing Day, Feb. 3.
