Virginia Tech women's basketball continued its impressive run on the recruiting trail Friday, landing a commitment from four-star forward Ashley Kreiger, giving head coach Megan Duffy her fourth top-100 prospect in the 2027 recruiting class.
Kreiger, a 6-foot-2 forward from Westtown School in Pennsylvania, announced her commitment to the Hokies on Friday, choosing Virginia Tech over several other Power Four programs.
The highly regarded prospect is ranked No. 93 nationally by ESPN and No. 69 by Rivals, adding another talented piece to a recruiting class that has quickly become one of the more notable developments surrounding Duffy's program.
Kreiger visited Blacksburg in September and ultimately selected the Hokies over a competitive group of schools that included Arizona, BYU and Georgia Tech. She also held offers from Alabama, Arkansas, California, Iowa State, Kansas, Missouri, Northwestern, Penn State, Rutgers, Syracuse and Virginia, among others.
Her commitment marks another recruiting victory for Duffy and her staff, who have made considerable progress in attracting nationally recognized high school talent to Blacksburg.
Kreiger joins three other top-100 prospects already committed to Virginia Tech's 2027 class: 5-foot-10 guard Dani Robinson, ranked No. 38 nationally by ESPN; 5-foot-9 guard Jazman Bailey, ranked No. 41; and 6-foot guard Lillie Graves, ranked No. 60.
With Kreiger's addition, all four of Virginia Tech's current commitments in the class are ranked among ESPN's top 100 prospects.
The Hokies have now secured eight top-100 commitments during Duffy's tenure, further demonstrating the program's ability to compete for highly regarded recruits on the national stage.
At Westtown School, Kreiger has already established herself as a productive contributor to a successful high school program. She helped lead Westtown to a Friends Schools League championship during her junior season, with the team also finishing as the runner-up in the state tournament.
Kreiger is one of five top-100 prospects from Pennsylvania in the 2027 class, a group that includes Westtown teammate Jordyn Palmer, who is ranked No. 7 nationally by ESPN.
Beyond her national ranking, Kreiger brings a combination of size, rebounding and defensive ability to Virginia Tech's future frontcourt.
In an interview with On3, Kreiger described herself as a competitive player who takes pride in the aspects of basketball that require consistent effort, particularly rebounding and defense.
She also discussed her development into a more versatile offensive player, with an emphasis on expanding her shooting range to the 3-point line while maintaining the ability to contribute in the paint.
That combination could eventually give the Hokies another option in the frontcourt, particularly as Duffy continues building a roster capable of competing in the ACC.
Kreiger also emphasized the importance of player development and relationships with the coaching staff during her recruitment.
According to On3, Virginia Tech began recruiting her while she was playing 16U basketball with Philly Rise. Kreiger cited the program's coaching staff and welcoming environment as important factors in her interest in the Hokies.
The commitment adds to what has already been a productive recruiting cycle for Virginia Tech, which has assembled a balanced group of guards and frontcourt talent in its 2027 class.
While Robinson, Bailey and Graves provide the Hokies with multiple perimeter prospects, Kreiger gives the class additional size and versatility.
With four nationally ranked prospects now committed, Virginia Tech's 2027 recruiting class continues to take shape as Duffy and her staff look to establish long-term success in Blacksburg.
Kreiger's commitment represents another significant addition to that effort, strengthening the Hokies' future frontcourt and adding to the program's growing collection of highly rated recruits.
