The Yankees Visit Virginia Tech University

by Anthony Amobi

The New York Yankees were on the campus of Virginia Tech University this morning to honor the victims of the horrific April 16th shooting tragedy that took 32 lives at the campus in Blacksburg, Va., last year.

The team is in town for an exhibition game with the Virginia Tech team.

Say what you want about the Yankee organization; however, this was a classy move by the team and their generosity will not soon be forgotten.
