Tech spring game canceled

The Associated Press reports that Virginia Tech on Tuesday canceled its spring football practice and the team's annual spring game in the wake of Monday's campus massacre.

The intrasquad game, which typically thousands of fans, was scheduled for Saturday.

The school also postponed a baseball game against William & Mary that had been scheduled for Wednesday.

Five spring sports teams will participate in ACC championships as scheduled, the school said.

The Roanoke Times has heard other things as well in regards to the sports schedule this week. We expect to get all of the current information from athletic director Jim Weaver following today's convocation at Cassell Coliseum.
