Isabel Marstellar from Newport News, Virginia has announced her verbal commitment to Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University’s class of 2026. She will join Spain’s Carmen Weiler in Blacksburg in the fall of 2022.
“I am so excited to announce my verbal commitment to continue my academic and athletic career at Virginia Tech. I am so grateful for my family, friends and coaches who have helped me along the way. I can’t wait to be a Hokie! #gohokies”
