Tim Smith earned illustrious honors on the gridiron as a three-year starter, Kodak All-American and three-time All-ODAC honoree as a defensive lineman for the Tiger football team.  In 1978, he earned first team All-America honors and was the only defensive lineman in NCAA Division III football to earn the accolades on the Kodak team that encompassed all of Division II and III. In 1978, Smith’s teammates voted him Most Valuable Player and Outstanding Defensive Player as he led the Lou Wacker-coached Tiger defense.  Smith earned first team All-ODAC honors three straight seasons (1977-79) and in 1979 was selected the ODAC Player of the Year, making him one of only five Tigers to ever receive the honor.

Tim is currently the operations manager for Petra Holding Incorporated in Blacksburg, VA, and is a resident of Roanoke, VA, along with his wife, Martha, and daughters Ashley and Alexandra.
