Chris Obenshain, a Republican elected to the Virginia State House in 2024 representing the 41st district, has recently shared several posts on his Twitter account highlighting events related to sports and university affairs.
On May 27, 2026, Obenshain commented on a notable development for U.S. soccer fans: “Love the cameo here from Hokie legend Antonio Freeman as his son gets called up to the US World Cup squad. Let’s go, USA!”
The following day, May 28, 2026, he addressed concerns regarding university governance at Virginia Tech: “This is nuts. John Rocovich has dedicated endless time and effort to improving Virginia Tech and positioning the university for future growth and success. A shocking overreach,”
On May 29, 2026, Obenshain continued his support for Virginia Tech athletics with a brief post: “Let’s go, Hokies!”
Obenshain assumed office after winning election in 2024, succeeding Eileen Filler-Corn as state representative for Virginia’s 41st House district.
