The Shamrocks started graduating student-athletes from our split season teams with the class of 2012. Listed below are colleges and universities where VT Shamrock players have gone on to play.

It is of particular note that many Shamrocks play a sport other than hockey in college. This is evidence of our commitment to serving the multi-sport athlete.
