Kyle Renfro, an upcoming senior at Brookville High School in Lynchburg and a player for the Roanoke Star Soccer Club, has recently decided to commit to Virginia Tech. Renfro has been heavily recruited over the past few months by the incoming goalkeeper coach at Tech and their interest made him feel comfortable about making the commitment now – despite strong interest from other college soccer programs.
“Kyle has been a very important part of the Roanoke Star program and will be on the current U18 Roanoke Star Elite team this year, a team that plays at the highest levels of youth soccer in the United States,” said Graham Maclean, Director of Coaching for the Roanoke Star. A 4-year starter on his high school soccer team and the team captain, Renfro was all-district and all-region in soccer this year.
“Without a doubt Kyle is one of the best goalkeepers in the Roanoke area; I wouldn’t be surprised to see him go on to achieve great things at the college level, where he has the character to be a big success,” said Maclean. “I have every confidence that he will feature prominently in the Tech starting line-up before long. Tech is getting a great goalkeeper … who will work hard for everything he gets. ”
