The competition promises to be fierce, with a field featuring Saint Mary’s, Vanderbilt, South Florida, VCU, Colorado State, Western Kentucky, and Wichita State. While this marks Virginia Tech’s official B4A debut, the Hokies are no strangers to The Bahamas. Back in 2010, they dazzled fans with an 88-57 victory over Mississippi State in the inaugural Battle at Atlantis showcase. Now, with a new era of players and even greater ambitions, they return to Paradise determined to leave their mark on the national stage.

Battle 4 Atlantis has become a rite of passage for ACC basketball royalty. Powerhouses like Duke, North Carolina, and Syracuse have all left their mark on our courts. Just last year, Louisville battled its way to the championship game. Now, Virginia Tech steps into the spotlight, ready to join the ranks of these elite programs and carve out its own legacy in the heart of Atlantis.

This tournament is more than just a series of games — it’s an opportunity for the Hokies to test their mettle against top-tier competition, build team chemistry, and set the tone for the season ahead. It’s a chance for fans to witness the future of Virginia Tech basketball in one of the most unforgettable settings imaginable.
