Virginia Tech landed two more football commitments Sunday, on the heels of two pledges the day before at Tech's one-day camp.
The latest additions are defensive end Woody Baron from outside Nashville, Tenn., and defensive tackle Nigel Williams from Richmond. Baron is the nephew of former Hokies defensive tackle Jim Baron.
Woody Baron is 6-foot-3, 255 pounds and had offers from Arizona State, Duke, Louisville, Syracuse, Wake Forest and Vanderbilt.
Williams (6-3, 260 pounds) is rated the country's No. 49 defensive tackle by Rivals.com. He had interest from Boston College, Cincinnati, North Carolina, N.C. State, Vanderbilt, Virginia and Notre Dame.
New Tech assistant coach Shane Beamer helped the Hokies land the latest commitments. He was hired by his father, head coach Frank Beamer, to help boost recruiting.
With almost seven months left until signing day, Tech has 19 commitments in this class, including 14 defensive players.
