Icing, but good icing! Remember that VT is numbers driven, meaning that extracurriculars are not as important to them. Don't get me wrong, ECs are always good, especially when they show your interest in a particular area (leadership, entrepreneurship, research, etc), but you will get noticed first with your numbers. Being captain of a team shows leadership potential, always a good thing for any school to see.
If you haven't visited the campus, I highly recommend doing so. Sometimes just the feel of the campus, students, and staff is enough to help make up your mind. It worked for my two boys. I don't know what other schools you are considering at this point, but instate tuition is such a bargain. You are lucky to have VT as an option in that regard. I wish I could be of better help to you.
