In-State OL Decides

UVa keeps on rolling in the commitments, adding yet another prospect today when North Stafford (VA) rising senior prospect Patrick Slebonick verbally committed to the ‘Hoos.

“I committed this morning,” Slebonick said. “I called and told Mike Groh. He passed the phone around to Coach [Ron] Prince and then Al Groh. They were all pretty excited. It’s a big relief to have my decision made, and I’m confident with my decision.”

Slebonick chose UVa over offers from Virginia Tech and NC State, and interest from Maryland, Tennessee, and West Virginia, among others. He started researching and visiting schools last year, which is a big reason why he felt ready to make his decision early in the recruiting process.

“I feel I made an informed decision,” Slebonick said. “I looked at the educational opportunities of schools, the campus life, and the coaching staff, and I felt UVa had the best opportunities for me in all of those areas.”
