Highly-recruited 2025 prospect Aniya Trent chooses Virginia Tech
Top 2025 recruit Aniya Trent of Springboro (Ohio) High School has committed to Virginia Tech, she told On3. She chose the Hokies over Washington, Clemson and Penn State.
Trent told On3 in a previous interview that the deciding factor for her would be the family feel and culture. She found that with Virginia Tech and new head coach Megan Duffy.
“At the end of the day, the ball stops bouncing,” Trent told On3. “I want to go somewhere where I will be able to have a relationship outside of basketball, but also be able to have my fun when I’m there for four years… It’s going to be definitely the culture, the family aspect side of it, and definitely just somewhere where I’m going to feel comfortable and have a lot of fun and win. Winning is a big part. I want to win.”
Virginia Tech didn’t enter the picture until the new staff arrived this offseason, but they made an immediate impression.
“They came in when the new staff came in, but their one coach from Kentucky has been recruiting me for a while,” Trent told On3. “She moved from Kentucky to Virginia Tech – Jen Hoover – so she’s been recruiting me for a while. So I’m super comfortable with her. The new head coach called me. She FaceTimes me all the time, so that’s super nice. We’ve been building our relationship, but I just want to go down there and kind of see what it’s like. I’ve heard amazing things about Virginia Tech, so I want to see, and it’s a great program overall. I’m excited to go down there and see what it’s like, meet the players, get some info from them and see how it will be.”
The 6-foot-1 forward brings a strong post presence to the Hokies, but has also been continuing to strengthen her outside game.
“I would say, and I’ve heard from many people, [I’m] just unselfish,” Aniya Trent said of her game. “I like to get my teammates a lot of open shots. And I play hard, and I think I put effort into it. I’m in the process of stretching out my game and becoming more versatile because I’m usually just put in the post, but I’ve been working on my outside game for about two years now. I’ve been working on just being able to shoot mid range, being able to shoot threes and take it off the dribble because I know I’m capable.”
