Some amazing #Hokies news to share:

Chase O’Brien, the young man who designed the shoes @CoachMKYoung wore from the Carilion Children’s Hospital program, got to “Ring the Bell” on Monday.

He’s done with chemo! So proud of this tough fella. Congrats Chase!

Young reporters… take note!
When you are assigned to write about a game and “real life” breaks out all around you, don’t be afraid to pivot!
Kudos to @ARomanoWDBJ for turning what some would deem a footnote into the feature!🏀🏀 @CoachMKYoung #VT #WDBJ

WATCH: @HokiesMBB defeated Pitt on Saturday, but the star of the night was 7-year-old Chase O'Brien.

See how @CoachMKYoung and Virginia Tech turned a young cancer patient into the King of the Cassell:

Chase wanted dunks 🙆‍♂️

We had 6️⃣ of ‘em 🔨💥

[Virginia Tech Men's Basketball @HokiesMBB]

Toughest guy in the building 😤💪

Chase loves the camera too 🎥😅

[David Cunningham @therealdcunna]

Chase O’Brien, a seven-year-old that’s gone through cancer treatments for the last two years, is an honorary starter for the #Hokies tonight. Chase and his parents, Eric and Jessica, are the program’s special guests this afternoon vs. Pitt.

[Virginia Tech Men's Basketball @HokiesMBB]

Special day in Cassell tomorrow 🏰🥹

🦃 #LOVE game vs. Pitt
🦃 Chase O’Brien in the house

Make sure to be in your seats early‼️

[Virginia Tech Men's Basketball @HokiesMBB]

Bigger than basketball 🦃🧡

We're truly inspired by the patients at @CarilionClinic. Chase O'Brien was the kid who designed Coach Young's shoes.

Chase, when you're ready, we'll have a seat in Cassell fit for royalty!

[Eric O’Brien @OBByeaUKnowMe11]

Admiring the shoes he painted wish we were there @HokiesMBB @CoachMKYoung
