On Wednesday afternoon, the Virginia Independent Conference (VIC) announced their All-Conference team selections.

The Hargrave Tigers fared well as they placed members on the First Team, Second Team, and Honorable Mention Team as a result of their efforts this season. CJ Farmer ’22 led the way for the Tigers, as he earned First Team All-VIC honors both as an offensive lineman and as a defensive lineman. “This is a great honor,” remarked Farmer. “I couldn’t have done this without the support of my family, teammates and coaching staff. I play football because I love the game but it’s definitely nice to see my hard work get recognized!”
