#2 Mitch Moore Commits To Virginia Tech
Mitch Moore goes live with two-time All American Chris Dardanes:

Virginia Tech's pipeline to Ohio powerhouse St. Paris Graham remains in tact.  Rising Junior Mitch Moore, the 2nd ranked 132 pounder in the country has made his decision to wrestle for Coach Dresser at Virginia Tech.  Moore comes in at #17 overall recruit on the Junior Big Board

Moore is already a two-time Ohio State champion as he gets set to start his Junior campaign for the Jeff Jordan coached Falcons.  

Moore informed FloWrestling of his decision today, and had the following to say about why Blacksburg was the place for him:

"I chose Virginia Tech because of the coaches. I love Coach Dresser, Zadick and St. John.  I chose Virginia Tech over Ohio State because of wrestlers like Ty Walz who won state once in Ohio and now is #2 in the country.  Virginia Tech also has such a nice campus it's a small college town."

At the next level, Moore plans to wrestle at 133 or 141 and believes he will compete right away.  As he mentioned, the decision essentially came down to Ohio State and Virginia Tech.  Mitch's older brother Brent will be a freshman this year at Virginia Tech.  Mitch is the first top 100 verbal for the Hokies for the class of 2018.  Virginia Tech is coming off of a banner season where they earned the program's first ever NCAA trophy when they placed 4th at the NCAA tournament.
