  Eleven Virginia Tech student-athletes are or will be participating this summer in Coach for College, a global initiative to promote higher education founded by former Duke tennis player Parker Goyer. The Tech contingent will be among 62 ACC student-athletes heading to Vietnam to teach children basketball, soccer, volleyball and tennis. More importantly, the curriculum also includes health, physics, morality and English.
